Join Nurture Through Nature in Denmark, Maine

 

Come learn how to make your own large reed pack basket. We teach the whole process: how to gather materials, how to make and decorate your own basket and how to care for it so it can last a lifetime. One of the most fun and meaningful parts of each class is learning how to listen to your materials and let them shape themselves. Also, we share our stories of lessons that the crafts have taught. By the end of the weekend your pack basket will be complete for you to take home.

Blended in the hands-on skills gained from weaving your own pack basket will be breathing exercises and guided meditations to help you fully arrive in the "now". You also are invited to join in on nature walks to take in the beauty of Pleasant Mountain, our spring-fed brook and long views of the White Mountains. Expect spontaneous, fun happenings throughout your stay!

Package Price: $350pp ~ Add $60 for materials per person.
