Planting Seeds is back!

An ongoing workshop for children based on the “Planting Seeds” curriculum by Thich Nhat Hanh will begin October 7th. The program invites children ages 5-11 to explore and experience mindfulness, meditation, and movement practices for themselves under the guidance of Christine Word, Jody Bird, and Jeanneane Pugliese. They will meet in the Davis Memorial on Sunday mornings at 11:00 am. The program is free and open to all children on a drop-in basis.
