Wildlife biologist and Lansing resident Robyn Bailey will present some of her research on birds that has been carried out in Lansing and the surrounding areas. She will tie this in with some “big picture” questions in ornithology, which she also researches with the help of citizen scientists across the country. Come learn about some of our local birds, find out what’s been nesting in those nest boxes you see throughout Lansing, and find out how you can help birds in your yard, too!

At Yoga Farm, we teach meditation for householders—people who live in the world, who have relatioships, jobs, families, houses, and to-do lists.

In this weekly session, we work with a new Sutra from the book 'The Radiance Sutras' by Lorin Roche. Each Sutra is a beautiful exploration of one of the 'gateways' to meditation.

From 8-8:15am we read, discuss and explore a Sutra, then we enjoy silent meditation  together until about 8:45. 

This offering is FREE to the Public.
