Guests will meet the Host at a central location. This may or may not be at the foraging location. If needed the Host will shuttle guests to the foraged location. Each guest will be outfitted with the proper mushroom foraging tools and given a detailed explanation of what each piece of equipment is used for and how it is to be used. Guests will learn how to identify and recognize a few different species of wild mushrooms and have hands on experience learning about mycology and how to forage for wild mushrooms. Since there are thousands of species of mushrooms and fungi, only safe and edible mushrooms will be collected and learned about during this experience. Guests will spend 60-90min on a guided forage walking through mixed terrain in search of wild mushrooms. Once the experience is finished, the group will ensure we "leave no trace" and return back to the rendezvous where guests can provide feedback and be given the opportunity to purchase dried mushrooms previously foraged locally. (Mushroom Hunting is a very seasonal and temperamental activity, guests should be aware there is a small chance that fresh edible mushrooms may not be discovered during their experience however the Host guarantees that wild edible mushrooms will be integrated into the whole experience as well as a fulfilling learning experience!) Other things to note The guide will provide resources to help identify common edible mushrooms via literature and photos. There's a chance that not every foraging experience will result in edible mushrooms but be prepared to have a full day of learning and experiencing the outdoors!

Observing over the fence, or walking in the herd of 5 horses, depending on the confidence of all involved. You may choose a horse, or they may choose you, or I may pair you with an equine partner for further interactions, which could range from just ‘being with you just as you are’ or catching, haltering, grooming, leading, or going through obstacles . Further sessions could address areas in your life which you would like to improve or investigate such as boundaries, leadership, relaxation, confidence-you decide or I can suggest. Horses are wonderful mirrors for us, non judgemental, accepting of our real selves. They help us remember the ‘secret’ to life could be ‘just breathe’. A discussion of your observations and feelings will follow if you desire, and suggestions for creative ways of remembering your horse time, with some creative materials supplied.
