Grandmother Moon

Grandmother Moon

Grandmother Moon was full and beautiful last week - hopefully you got to see her. The next full moon, on the 31st of this month, will be a rare "blue moon" - a second full moon in a calendar month. Be sure to catch her second full moon August appearance then.

Medicine Plants - Stone Root

Stone Root (Collinsonia canadensis)

I thought our readers here might enjoy an article I wrote on another blog. It is about a medicine plant that was traditionally used by the Haudenosaunee (Iroquois) that I spotted while hiking around nearby Canandaigua. Enjoy the article:

Trailguides Needed

Ganondagan is looking for a few more people who are interested in becoming trail guides. Being a trail guide is a wonderful way to share the history of the site and of the Seneca people with visitors. Trail guides will lead visitors on guided trail walks and can be an important part of a visitor's experience of Ganondagan. Training is provided to all potential trail guides.

If you would like to learn more about our trail guide program, please see an article written by one of our long time trail guides about her experiences and the program.

If you are interested in this volunteer opportunity, please contact our Volunteer Coordinator.
