Step into stillness and experience Kruckeberg Botanic
Garden like never before - after hours. Join us for an immersive Forest Bathing Workshop in partnership with Cascadia Forest Therapy on Thursday, September 25, from 5:30 – 7:30 PM as we celebrate the fall equinox and the beginning of a new season.
This special evening session invites participants to slow down, unplug, and connect deeply with nature while the garden is closed to the public. Surrounded by the calm of evening and the
sounds of the living landscape, you’ll be guided through a series of gentle, sensory-based invitations to help you relax and reset.
Whether you're a seasoned practitioner or entirely new to forest bathing, this workshop is open to all - no prior experience is needed. Just bring your curiosity, comfortable clothes, and a
willingness to unwind.
Registering with friends is encouraged! A minimum number of participants is required to run the workshop.
Let the garden help you recharge - quietly, slowly, and intentionally.

Forest Bathing is a guided forest walk typically lasting for one to two hours, providing a gentle and physically undemanding experience in a natural setting. Unlike a hike, there is no specific destination or distance to be measured. Instead, your guide leads participants through a series of sensory invitations that allow people to have fun engaging with their environment and find moments of reflection and inspiration. Forest bathing (or shinrin-yoku) has been popular in Japan for decades and is gaining momentum in the US. A growing number of scientific studies show that forest bathing practices lower stress and blood pressure levels and increase immune system functioning.
Accessibility: The lower garden can be accessed by our boardwalk. Kruckeberg Botanic Garden is
