Full Moon Nature Walk
Join Joanna Roche on a peaceful one hour walk (up to 2 miles on uneven terrain) under the light of the full Moon. Discover the legends and narratives of the past and present. Enjoy the tranquility of the quiet night sky and learn about our Moon's current themes and its important symbolism.
After the Harvest Moon comes the Hunter's Moon, the preferred month to hunt summer-fattened deer and fox unable to hide in bare fields. Like the Harvest Moon, the Hunter's Moon is also particularly bright and long in the sky, giving hunters the opportunity to stalk prey at night. Other names include the Travel Moon and the Dying Grass Moon.
