SUMMARY:Members Only - Pruning Meditation: Mindful Pruning in the Japanese Garden Tradition
DESCRIPTION:In collaboration with the Japan Society of Fairfield County. \nJoin us for a unique hands-on program exploring how caring for a Japanese garden can become a calming\, focused practice. This is not a meditation class. Instead\, Japanese master gardener Mr. Umeno will demonstrate how attentive pruning encourages mindfulness through careful observation\, patience\, and responsiveness to the garden’s needs. \nThe program begins with an introduction by local landscape architect and Japanese garden designer Mr. Kurimoto\, who will share the principles of Japanese gardens and the important role of the gardener. Mr. Umeno\, from Kyoto\, Japan\, will then demonstrate his thoughtful approach to everyday garden care and the mindset behind it. \nParticipants will learn the philosophy of Japanese gardens\, watch a live pruning demonstration\, and then have the opportunity to practice these techniques in the garden under guidance. \nSpace is limited to 30 participants. Please bring a pair of small hand-pruning shears. Please see your email from New Canaan Beautification League for registration information.
