Description:
Join us at Pineland Farms for a Forest Bathing experience led by Hughes Kraft, a Certified Nature and
Forest Therapy Guide who is passionate about helping others experience Maine’s landscapes in a
mindful and meaningful way. Forest Bathing is not a destination hike or a naturalist walk—it is an
opportunity to awaken your senses, cultivate presence, and deepen your connection to both nature and
yourself.
The Winter Solstice has long been recognized as a time for rest, reflection, and renewal. Together, we
will embrace the stillness of the forest, honor the turning of the seasons, and create space for calm,
clarity, and restoration. We hope you’ll join us for this peaceful and grounding experience as we
welcome the return of the light.
