Realizing Peace through the Natural World: Botanist, teacher, mother, and beloved author Robin Wall Kimmerer will engage attendees in an interactive presentation on “The Gifts of Plants,” exploring the ways in which native plants offer gifts of food, materials, medicine, and beauty. Kimmerer shares her understanding of how plants are our oldest teachers. She encourages humans to act in reciprocity by giving their gifts to care for plants. Following the discussion and book signing will be a light Iroquois White Corn lunch. After lunch, Finger Lakes Forest Therapy leads a walk on Ganondagan's trails for a full sensory experience with nature and to create a deeper connection with the Earth. Forest therapy is based on the Japanese Shinrin-Yoku, a guided practice to access the peace, vitality, creativity and renewal of the forest. Sunday, June 3 from 10 am - 4 pm. Location: Ganondagan State Historic Site at 7000 County Road 41, P.O. Box 239, Victor, NY 14564. Cost: $40/general public, $35/Friends of Ganondagan members.
