SUMMARY:Cold Moon\, Crackling Fire - rescheduled
DESCRIPTION:This event is going to be rescheduled. Thank you for your interest. \nStep into the stillness of a winter night and experience the magic of the Cold Moon at Stroud Preserve. Named by the Mohawk people to honor the arrival of deep winter\, December’s full moon casts a silvery glow across quiet fields and sleeping forests.  \nWe’ll embark on a guided moonlit hike\, breathing in the crisp night air and soaking up the serene beauty of the season. Afterward\, gather around a glowing campfire to warm your hands\, sip hot beverages\, and enjoy cozy seasonal treats.  \nLet the chill of winter bring you closer—to nature\, to the moment\, and to one another.

SUMMARY:Outdoors Online: Prose and Poetry with Villanova Student Writers
DESCRIPTION:This is a virtual event. The Zoom link will be shared in the confirmation email.   \nStoneleigh serves as inspiration for nature lovers\, birders\, gardeners\, naturalists\, and artists. For Villanova University’s Nature Writing Workshop\, Stoneleigh has become an outdoor classroom.   \nFrom the bog garden and wildflower meadow to the wildlife hedge—home to foxes and the hidden beginnings of a stream—these diverse landscapes have inspired poetry\, storytelling\, and conversations about nature\, habitat\, and biodiversity.  \nPlease join us at the semester’s end as students share their poetry and prose. Grab a drink\, get comfortable with a laptop (or smartphone)\, and join the program via Zoom.   \n
