Thank you to everyone who participated in the Fall Forest Bathing event yesterday. Participants took in the beauty of early autumn at Clermont under the guidance of Mindful Outdoor Guide Suzy Conroy. The 90-minute session included a peaceful walk through Clermont's Riverside and bridle trails, guided meditation, and concluded with a cup of freshly brewed white pine tea.

Thank you to Terra Trek NY for partnering with us on this program.
