All Forward CONNECTIONS: Pussy Willow Harvesting & Fire Pit Chat

Pussy Willows are a sign of the last throes of winter and the brink of spring as fuzzy nubs bloom along the branches resembling tiny cats’ paws. Visit the Greenfield Berry Farm in the heart of the Cuyahoga Valley National Park that is preserving and protecting the rural landscape. Meet Daniel Greenfield, the local farmer/environmental educator and learn with a hands-on experience harvesting these plants with programming to connect participants along the way. You can take home a dozen stems as a reminder that spring is on its way. We will then enjoy some local hot beverages and snacks at a firepit with programming focused on building connections and expanding your professional/community/social circles. Facilitated by All Forward, Founder, Roseanne Deucher. Special guest, Becky Osborn, career coach, will join us for the discussion and sharing.

Minimum age 18. All participants receive a complimentary year member to the Conservancy for the CVNP ($50 value).
