This course was designed with seniors in mind. Tom Benson, Highlands Center Master Naturalist, has created this course to connect you with the natural world of the Arizona Central Highlands.

Topics covered will be geology from the start, wildlife, and edible and medicinal plants. In addition, part of each class will discuss the nine lifestyle habits that have been statistically supported not only to lengthen life, but to enrich those years as well. Attendees will be provided time to connect with each other as well as time for solitude and meditation at our beautiful site. The course is conducted entirely in the Discovery Gardens with only short strolls on paved, walker-friendly paths. Class size is limited to sixteen participants.

Each session will start at 1:00pm, however, attendees are encouraged to bring a sack lunch to meet with others in the class. Water and lemonade will be provided.

Mondays, 9/11, 9/18, 9/25, 10/2, and 10/9 from 1:00pm- 4:00pm in the James Family Discovery Gardens Ramada.
