SUMMARY:Early Spring Pruning Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Are you puzzled by pruning? Confounded by coppicing? Perplexed by pollarding? Join Stoneleigh staff for a workshop in the garden to demystify early spring pruning. \nWith the expert guidance of a horticulturist\, you’ll learn winter pruning basics for small trees and shrubs\, as well as specialized pruning techniques used at Stoneleigh like pollarding and coppicing. Part lecture\, part demonstration\, this workshop will help you build confidence in your pruning skills and offer an opportunity to ask questions and engage in discussion about pruning in your own garden. \nThis workshop will begin with an indoor lecture then move outdoors for pruning demonstrations by a Stoneleigh horticulturist. Dress for the weather and bring a notebook and writing utensil.

SUMMARY:Hepatica Hike - SOLD OUT
DESCRIPTION:This event is sold out. Please join us at a future event. \nJoin event leaders on this off-trail exploration of a rarely visited section of the preserve. We’ll search the woods along Mine Run (a tributary of French Creek) to look for round-lobed hepatica\, one of the earliest-blooming spring ephemeral wildflowers. Boulder-hop through Deep Woods to find other harbingers of spring like wood anemone\, rue anemone\, and early violets. \nThis part of the preserve has mature forest with diabase rock outcroppings. Though it looks pristine today\, it has a long history of human use\, including small quarry pits used to source cobblestones. A long-gone nearby railroad line (the Warwick branch of the Wilmington & Northern Railroad\, once known as the Boar’s Back\, today part of the Horse-Shoe Trail) is lingering evidence of this industrial period that extended into the early 20th century. \nCan’t attend this one? Check out more dates and locations in our Spring Ephemeral Wildflower Wander series below: \n\nFriday\, April 10\, 1:00-2:30pm – Stoneleigh: a natural garden (Villanova\, PA) \nSunday\, April 12\, 1:00-3:30pm – Crow’s Nest Preserve (Elverson\, PA) \nSaturday\, April 18\, 9:00-11:30am – Sadsbury Woods Preserve (Coatesville\, PA) \nFriday\, May 1\, 10:00am-12:00pm – Saunders Woods Preserve (Gladwyne\, PA) \nSaturday\, May 2\, 10:00am-12:00pm – Mariton Wildlife Sanctuary (Easton\, PA) \nSaturday\, May 9\, 9:00-11:30am – Sadsbury Woods Preserve (Coatesville\, PA)

SUMMARY:Nature as Healer: A (Grief) Writing Workshop
DESCRIPTION:“The people cannot be healed until the land is healed. The land cannot be healed until the people are healed by the land.” – Martin Prechtel\, author \nNature can be a great healer for the heartaches we all experience along our journey. Join Naila Francis\, founder of This Hallowed Wilderness\, for a writing workshop to explore the restorative power of nature (right around Earth Day). \nTogether\, we will walk through the shady woods and sunny meadows of Hildacy Preserve\, listening to our inner voices\, on this inspiring nature immersion that also invites us into reciprocal relationship with the land and wildlife. \nBring a notebook and a writing instrument for this workshop. (We will also have some available.) \nOur stroll through the woods will be silent\, followed by some meditative time beside the flowing Crum Creek\, and quiet reflection. \nYou will be invited to share whatever you wish in a “sacred circle\,” but this is not required. The intent of this event is to bring people together\, whatever their losses and struggles\, and to connect with others and the natural world at their own comfort level. \nAbout our instructor: Naila is a grief coach and death midwife who companions people on their grief journey through multiple spaces and practices\, including meditations in nature and the written word.
