Due to recent flooding, the entire park has been closed. The rains are a welcome sight for this wetlands - and therefore for us.
Join us in a mindful exploration of the wetlands of Tennant Lake County Park outside of Ferndale.
We’ll gather at 10 am by the Tenant Lake house (next to the parking area) to begin a slow silent walk on the boardwalk.
Stops for sitting meditation and a simple Wilderness Dharma ritual will be included as we take our time immersing ourselves in the rich wetlands ecosystem. This walk is accessible, flat, and about a mile in length.
Please bring a picnic lunch for some social time after our walk.
Led by Reizan Bob Penny, who was formerly a naturalist and educator at Tennant Lake.
