SUMMARY:2nd Annual Bloom for Butterflies Milkweed Sale
DESCRIPTION:We are excited to announce our 2nd Annual Bloom for Butterflies Milkweed Plant Fundraiser Sale. This initiative aims to promote the planting of milkweed\, a vital host plant for monarch butterflies\, and to raise funds to support the maintenance of the Ed Flanagan Pollinator Garden at Milbridge Commons Wellness Park. \nMilkweed is essential to monarch survival\, whose populations have declined dramatically in recent years. By planting milkweed\, we not only provide a safe habitat for these beautiful butterflies but also support the overall health of our local ecosystems. \nThe Bloom for Butterflies Milkweed Plant Fundraiser Sale features swamp milkweed\, a plant that forms 3-5 foot tall clumps\, and doesn’t spread aggressively like other milkweed species. It’s a perennial that thrives in wet environments but can also grow in regular gardens. \nOur 3-quart pots will contain two Milkweed seedlings ready for planting.  \nSupplies are limited (and we sold out last year)! Order now for pickup in late June. Plants are a $12 donation. \nJoin us in making a difference for our environment! Together\, we can create a brighter future for monarch butterflies and our local ecosystems.  \n \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n					\n	\n\n                \n                        \n                            Bloom for Butterflies: Milkweed Plant Fundraiser\n                        \n                        Swamp Milkweed Plant Quantity\n					\n					\n						Price:\n						$12.00\n					\n					\n					 Quantity \n				Name(Required)\n                            \n                            \n                                                    \n                                                    First\n                                                \n                            \n                            \n                                                    \n                                                    Last\n                                                \n                            \n                        Phone Number(Required)Email(Required)\n                            \n                        Mailing Address    \n                    \n                         \n                                        \n                                        Street Address\n                                    \n                                    \n                                    City\n                                 \n                                        AlabamaAlaskaAmerican SamoaArizonaArkansasCaliforniaColoradoConnecticutDelawareDistrict of ColumbiaFloridaGeorgiaGuamHawaiiIdahoIllinoisIndianaIowaKansasKentuckyLouisianaMaineMarylandMassachusettsMichiganMinnesotaMississippiMissouriMontanaNebraskaNevadaNew HampshireNew JerseyNew MexicoNew YorkNorth CarolinaNorth DakotaNorthern Mariana IslandsOhioOklahomaOregonPennsylvaniaPuerto RicoRhode IslandSouth CarolinaSouth DakotaTennesseeTexasUtahU.S. Virgin IslandsVermontVirginiaWashingtonWest VirginiaWisconsinWyomingArmed Forces AmericasArmed Forces EuropeArmed Forces Pacific\n                                        State\n                                      \n                                    \n                                    ZIP Code\n                                \n                    \n                Total\n							\n						How do you plan to pay?(Required)Please note that Venmo is not yet available on Apple devices. \n			\n					\n					Credit Card\n			\n			\n					\n					PayPal or Venmo\n			\n			\n					\n					Send a Check\n			Paypal CheckoutPayPal Checkout\n                                    MasterCardVisaSupported Credit Cards: MasterCard\, Visa\n                                    \n                                    Card Number\n                                 \n                                            \n                                                \n                                                Expiration Date\n                                            \n                                                \n                                                 \n                                                Security Code\n                                             \n                                        \n                                            \n                                            Cardholder Name\n                                         Credit Card\n					\n						Cardholder Name\n					\n					\n						Card Details\n					\n				\n          \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n            \n        \n                        Δ

SUMMARY:Map & Compass Basics
DESCRIPTION:Map and Compass Basics is open to all who are 16 years or older.  \nDay 1: 10 am – 2 pmDay 2: 10 am – 4 pm \nKnowing how to use a map and compass can be the difference between a fun outdoor adventure and a scary one.

SUMMARY:Humble Cabbage\, Hearty Meals
DESCRIPTION:Come and celebrate the wide world of cabbage at this crunchy\, delicious Harvest Table! Cabbage can be enjoyed in so many ways: raw\, pickled\, steamed\, roasted\, sauteed…the list goes on! Cabbage is inexpensive\, versatile\, nutritious\, and keeps well in the fridge – a vegetable workhorse that is delicious to boot. Trade in your childhood memories of lackluster boiled cabbage for new ones at this Harvest Table! We will be exploring different cabbage salads/slaws like lightly pickled Salvadoran Curtido\, Lizzie’s favorite vinegar coleslaw\, and traditional mayo-based American coleslaw. We will also be making Pupusas to go with our bright cabbage salads\, as well as Ethiopian cabbage (Atakilt Wat)\, and a light cabbage soup. I hope you’ll join us for another exciting exploration of brassicas! \nThis program is free\, but registration is required. Registration opens April 1.  \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n					\n	\n                \n                        \n                            2026 May Harvest Table - Humble Cabbage Hearty Meals\n                        \n                        URLThis field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged.Humble Cabbage\, Hearty Meals8 spots available.\n					\n					\n						Price:\n						\n					\n					\n				Harvest Table Waitlist(Required)\n								\n								I wish to be signed up for the Waitlist\n							Your InformationName(Required)Space is limited - register ONLY one person at a time. \n                            \n                            \n                                                    \n                                                    First\n                                                \n                            \n                            \n                                                    \n                                                    Last\n                                                \n                            \n                        Email(Required)\n                            \n                        Phone(Required)Mailing Address(Required)    \n                    \n                         \n                                        \n                                        Street Address\n                                    \n                                    \n                                    City\n                                 \n                                        AlabamaAlaskaAmerican SamoaArizonaArkansasCaliforniaColoradoConnecticutDelawareDistrict of ColumbiaFloridaGeorgiaGuamHawaiiIdahoIllinoisIndianaIowaKansasKentuckyLouisianaMaineMarylandMassachusettsMichiganMinnesotaMississippiMissouriMontanaNebraskaNevadaNew HampshireNew JerseyNew MexicoNew YorkNorth CarolinaNorth DakotaNorthern Mariana IslandsOhioOklahomaOregonPennsylvaniaPuerto RicoRhode IslandSouth CarolinaSouth DakotaTennesseeTexasUtahU.S. Virgin IslandsVermontVirginiaWashingtonWest VirginiaWisconsinWyomingArmed Forces AmericasArmed Forces EuropeArmed Forces Pacific\n                                        State\n                                      \n                                    \n                                    ZIP Code\n                                \n                    \n                Do you have any food allergies?\n			\n					\n					No\n			\n			\n					\n					Yes\n			What is your allergy?(Required)Do you carry an Epi pen?(Required)\n			\n					\n					No\n			\n			\n					\n					Yes\n			Is there anything else we should know?

SUMMARY:Chair Yoga - Spring Session I - Evenings
DESCRIPTION:When: Wednesdays\, beginning May 6 (5 sessions)Time: 4:00-5:00 pmCost: $10 per session ($50 paid in advance) \nChair yoga allows us to enjoy the benefits of yoga while sitting securely in a firm chair.  We still have to do the work\, but we are seated in a chair or standing next to it\, using our hand for support.  This makes the practice available to those of us who can’t easily get up and down from the floor\,  have had knee or hip replacements\,  suffer from dizziness\, and struggle with balance — lots of us! \nWith practice\, our bodies become stronger and more flexible. Our breathing slows and deepens\, our postural alignment improves\, and we begin to cultivate an inner field of quiet and self-compassion. These benefits bring vitality to our systems and a feeling of being at home in our bodies. \nChairs are provided. Please wear comfortable\, layered clothing for both warm and cool conditions. Elastic waistbands are essential to prevent breath obstruction. Sneakers are good\, and shoes may stay on during practice. If you have yoga blocks\, please bring them.  No mat is needed. \nGeri Valentine is the instructor for this series. She is certified in both Yin and Kripalu Yoga\, forms of Hatha Yoga. She has offered Yoga through WHRL for 18 years. This Chair Yoga session is a modified version of Hatha. \nFor questions\, contact Geri Valentine at 207-598-5355. \n			\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n				\n					\n	\n                \n                        \n                            2026 Spring Session Chair Yoga - Evenings\n                        \n                        CompanyThis field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged.Chair Yoga - Spring Session - Evenings\n					\n					\n						Price:\n						\n					\n					\n				4 seats availableWaitlist(Required)\n								\n								Please sign me up for the waitlist.\n							Name(Required)\n                            \n                            \n                                                    \n                                                    First\n                                                \n                            \n                            \n                                                    \n                                                    Last\n                                                \n                            \n                        Email(Required)\n                            \n                        Phone(Required)Address(Required)    \n                    \n                         \n                                        \n                                        Street Address\n                                    \n                                        \n                                        Address Line 2\n                                    \n                                    \n                                    City\n                                 \n                                        \n                                        State / Province / Region\n                                      \n                                    \n                                    ZIP / Postal Code\n                                \n                    \n                Is there anything else we should know?

SUMMARY:Crepuscular Crawl
DESCRIPTION:“Crepuscular” is the word for animals that are most active during dawn and dusk. This mellow hike will focus on observing the signs of wildlife that love this cooler time of day during summer. In OWL outings\, frequent stops are built into the program to discuss elements of the natural world that we learn about on the way. The pace is always determined by the needs and desires of the group with a primary goal of going slow to enhance our connection with nature and each other. Bring comfortable close-toed shoes for walking in\, like sneakers or hiking boots\, and a backpack for extra layers\, water\, and snacks. This will be a moderate*\, short hike with minimal elevation change over mostly flat terrain. More information about the trail here (we don’t do the full 1.5-mile lollipop trail). \nOWL Outings are led by Registered Maine Guides at Maine Outdoor School who all hold a minimum of a Wilderness First Aid certification. To learn more about MOS’s guides\, visit https://www.maineoutdoorschool.org/staff. \n*To determine the difficulty level of outings\, we use Maine TrailFinder’s difficulty rating system. For more detailed information about these difficulty levels\, including visual examples\, explore the rating system here. \nGear Library \nWHRL and MOS have a gear collection for OWL outings. Please reach out directly to Lizzie at 413-717-7827 or by email at lizzie@whrl.org if you are interested in using any of the items below. Use is first-come\, first-served. Need something that you don’t see on the list below? Reach out! \nAvailable Gear \n\nTrekking poles (6 sets)\nLayers: rain ponchos\n\nSpace is limited\, and registration is required. Registration opens April 13.

SUMMARY:Spring Quilling: Blooming Lupines
DESCRIPTION:Need more lupines in your life? Create your own through the art of quilling! Quilling—also known as paper filigree—is a decorative art form dating back to the Renaissance. It involves rolling\, shaping\, and gluing thin strips of paper to create beautiful designs and patterns. \nSpring Quilling with Kelly\, taking place on Saturday\, May 23rd\, from 9 am to noon\, is a fun and creative workshop focused on crafting blooming lupines. Whether your style is intricate or delightfully simple\, this workshop is perfect for all skill levels—no prior experience required. All materials will be provided. \nThis workshop is open not only to women but to everyone in the community—ages 14 and up (a guardian is required if the participant is under 16).
