Mogshade (noun): The dappled shadow or shade cast by and tree or its leaves.

Join us for a week in the woods this summer, learning the timeless skills of living close to the land. This adult class offers a chance to slow down, step into the rhythms of the season, and deepen your relationship with the natural world.
