Wintergreen Studios: Autumn Equinox Labyrinth Walk

 

Drop in to Wintergreen Studios to learn about our land, our buildings, and our programs and retreats

The Autumn Open House is simply that: a chance to explore Wintergreen, chat with staff, and learn about our facilities and operations. Take a self-guided hike down one of our dozen trails, with a trail map in hand, and see if you can spot some of the early signs of spring.

Learn about how solar power is used at Wintergreen for the main lodge and the Forest House, Phoenix House, and Salamander Sleeper cabins. We will show you how we make use of reclaimed materials in our structures, giving each built element at Wintergreen a unique “feel” while at the same time using resources as sustainably as we are able. Learn about straw bale and cordwood construction as you explore the cabins and the straw bale lodge. Learn about how to create a living roof, another signature feature of many of Wintergreen’s buildings.

And we will be happy to tell you more about Wintergreen’s programs, including workshops, courses, weddings, and private and group retreats.

 

Date : Sept.22, 2024 from 9:30 am to 12pm
