Join us for a guided nature walk on the UF campus to cultivate awe, compassion and well-being.

We will gather in front of the brick building to start our walk together. We will stroll around the UF Field & Fork Farm & Garden and Lake Alice, explore the area, find wildlife, and use approaches from shinrin yoku, forest bathing, to feed the senses and promote feelings of awe, compassion, and well-being. This session will end as the sun sets, providing a perfect opportunity to stay to watch the bats at the UF Bat Houses after the session. This offering is free and weather-dependent. Free parking is available in the lot adjacent to the brick building to the west of the UF Bat Houses.
Facilitator and Guide: Nina Stoyan-Rosenzweig
