SUMMARY:Firefly Yoga at Long Branch Farm & Trails
DESCRIPTION:Registration Requirements: Preregistration required. \nIntended Audience: This program is designed for adults.

SUMMARY:Make and Take: Wild Raspberry Mocktail Mix at Long Branch Farm and Trails
DESCRIPTION:Registration Requirements: Preregistration required. \nIntended Audience: This program is designed for adults and interested youth ages 10 and up\, when accompanied by an adult. Children must be accompanied by an adult. \nProgram Description: Borrow one of our berry baskets and head out on a guided wild black raspberry picking hike in the dappled evening light along the edge of the woods. We’ll head back to the barn\, where you’ll learn to make a “shrub\,” a colonial-era recipe used to preserve fruit. Also known as a “drinking vinegar\,” shrubs were the Kool-Aid of their day. Savor the season as you try a mocktail made with our own wild black raspberry shrub\, then head home with your own in-process wild black raspberry shrub. \nIn this harvest experience\, you’ll: \ndiscover the vibrant flavor of our native black raspberry.\nwork in community with others.\nhear how versatile shrubs are in cocktails/mocktails and in culinary applications.\nexplore how native plants\, like our wild black raspberry\, are important to wildlife.\nhave the opportunity to ask questions about how we wild tend our native black raspberry patches\, as well as how we make vinegar.\nleave with inspiration\, a sense of satisfaction\, and instructions to finish your shrub at home.\nFrequently Asked Questions: \nWhat’s in a shrub?\nShrubs are equal parts fruit\, sugar/honey\, and vinegar. The acidity of the vinegar preserves the fruit. \nWhat does a shrub taste like?\nSince shrubs are infused for days to weeks\, they acquire savory\, fermented\, and jammy notes that add a complex\, sweet-and-tart “kick” that citrus by itself does not provide. \nHow are shrubs used?\nFinished shrubs are great mocktail/cocktail modifiers. Mix a few tablespoons with seltzer or alcohol. They pair well with almost any base spirit. Try shrub as a vinaigrette salad dressing\, a glaze on fish or meat\, or swirl it into your yogurt. \nWhat to Expect: We will be headed out into our tended but wild black raspberry patches (which entails about a 0.5-mile\, off-trail walk from the barn). \nBlack raspberry canes are thorny. With care\, you’ll emerge unscathed.\nLoaner harvesting baskets (the sort that attach to your waist to allow you to pick with both hands) will be available.\nRestrooms are available at the start and end of the program. Restrooms are not available on the trails.\nProgram runs rain or shine.\nWhat to Wear: As we’re harvesting from thorny wild black raspberry canes\, long pants\, boots\, and even a sturdy long-sleeved shirt are recommended. Pro-tip: consider wearing a clean glove on your non-dominant hand (to hold blackberry canes)\, picking with your dominant hand. Treating your body/clothing for chiggers is recommended. \nWhere to Meet: Registered participants will meet at the Creekside Barn at our Long Branch Farm & Trails location. (6926 Gaynor Rd\, Goshen\, OH 45122) \nCost: Ticket fees include daily admission.

SUMMARY:Trail Yoga
DESCRIPTION:Registration Requirements: Preregistration required. \nRecommended Audience: This program is designed for adults. Children of any age are more than welcome with the understanding that it is an adult yoga class\, so children under 13 years of age may not be able to do everything or stay interested in the class. Adults will have to decide how much management of their children they are interested in doing. \nProgram Description: Connect to nature in a deeper way through the mindful movement and meditative practices found in yoga. During this on-the-trail experience\, participants might draw upon the stability of trees for balancing postures or extend into a turtle pose by the pond. Become part of nature by meditating in a creek\, hugging trees\, and breathing in the life force around you. All levels are welcome. \nAbout the Guides: Diane H. Schmidt uses her years of experience as a certified Kripalu Yoga instructor to guide others through a gentle yoga experience that brings in elements of nature. As the founder of the first Cincinnati yoga studio\, Cincinnati Yoga School and Bookstore\, Diane has led many yoga classes and developed her style that focuses on the gentle stretches and mindful movement to help soothe stress. \nAmber Tucker has been volunteering for several years and has used yoga to heal from a medical setback. In 2024\, she began her Yoga Teacher Training\, inspired to share this path with others. Nature is her sanctuary\, and she looks forward to guiding others in discovering harmony between movement\, breath\, and the natural world. \nWhat to Expect: No prior yoga experience is necessary to enjoy this class. The instructor’s goal is to make yoga accessible for everyone using props and variations\, as needed. Trails and distances will vary between classes\, and we may encounter steps. Intensity is easy to moderate. \nThis program is entirely outdoors.\nRestrooms are available only at the start and end of the program\, as we will be out on the trails during the program.\nProgram runs rain or shine.\nWhat to Bring: Guests should bring water if the day is hot\, and a hiking stick if you have one for fun poses. (We will also have plenty of sticks to borrow or find in the forest to use for this purpose as well). A yoga mat is not needed. \nWhat to Wear: Participants should dress in layered\, loose\, comfortable\, athletic clothing—long cool pants suggested as we may step off trail. Hiking shoes or gym shoes are recommended. \nWhere to Meet: See specific meeting date for varying locations. \nCost: Ticket fees include daily admission.
