Then we’ll return to the warmth of the Pool House to write\, taking inspiration from the surrounding views\, which include bog gardens flanked by arborvitae\, white pine\, and hemlock.   \nJoin us to banish the cold and dark days of January with reading\, writing\, and Stoneleigh’s inspiration.  \nPlease note: the inclement weather date for this event is Friday\, January 16\, 10:00 – 11:30 AM.  \nAbout the instructor: Catherine Staples teaches creative writing in the English and honors programs at Villanova University. Her latest book of poetry\, VERT (Mercer University Press\, 2024)\, is available at Main Point Books in Wayne.   URL:https://wp.natlands.org/event/stoneleigh-writing-2026-0114/ LOCATION:Stoneleigh: a natural garden\, 1829 County Line Road\, Villanova\, Pennsylvania\, 19085 CATEGORIES:general,member perks ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://wp.natlands.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/12/DSC0040-e1766082840649.jpeg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20260114T183000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20260114T193000 DTSTAMP:20260409T105141 CREATED:20251119T193252Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260105T180730Z UID:10001127-1768415400-1768419000@wp.natlands.org SUMMARY:Connect & Explore: Big Trees\, Big Benefits DESCRIPTION:Big\, old trees in our landscape have huge benefits to our environment\, our society\, and our mental and physical health.
