SUMMARY:Astronomy
DESCRIPTION:Join astronomer Brian Mould for a tour of the night sky. This astronomy experience takes place at the edge of 100\,000 acres of undeveloped land known as Haliburton Forest  and night skies that are void of light pollution; the largest obstacle to night-sky viewing. \nEven on cloudy or rainy nights our programs will leave guests inspired: using a power point presentation we can explore the night skies\, listening to stories of constellations and various myths\, and travel through time learning about the ancient cultures that viewed the skies as a realm with magical powers. \n\nAdvanced registration is required.\n\nClick here for more information and to register.

SUMMARY:Intro to Wild Edible Mushrooms
DESCRIPTION:This immersive wilderness workshop brings you into the forest with a single delicious goal in mind: teaching you how to find\, safely identify\, and sustainably harvest wild edible mushrooms! Popular outdoors educator and avid forager Stephan Lukacic takes you deep into science\, ecology\, and methodology of modern mushroom hunting. \nThis short\, intensive “course” is designed to demystify wild mushrooms\, giving you a solid foundation on which to build future foraging skills. The workshop begins with an engaging 90 min seminar that takes place in a beautiful outdoor classroom. You will receive a handout covering all the basics of mushroom hunting methodology\, and read and discuss its contents thoroughly. Then you’ll do a deep dive right into the forest—putting the knowledge you’ve acquired directly into practice by identifying any wild mushrooms the group encounters in their natural habitat. \nNote: You will not be foraging for wild mushrooms to take home. This workshop focuses on teaching you how to find and identify wild edible mushrooms. \n\nAdvanced registration is required.\n\nClick here for more information and to register.
