Two Programs Jan. 20 @ New Canaan Nature Center

The New Canaan Nature Center located on 144 Oenoke Road in New Canaan is hosting a evening winter owl prowl on Saturday, January 20 from 6:30-8:30 p.m.  



The winter light of the full moon will be the guide as participants explore magic in the woods and unravel the mysteries of our nocturnal neighbors, the owls. Hikers will discover how owls use their keen senses to navigate the night and learn first-hand how they can hunt in the dark. A highlight of the event is to see if staff can identify owls by their tell-tale calls, before getting to meet a couple owls up close & personal back at the Center. It is best to register online for this event.



A "green cleaning" event is offered for adults on January 20 from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. that will focus on nontoxic solutions to everyday cleaning problems. A focus will be on how to avoid unnecessary greenwashed commercial products. Participants will learn the science of grime and see how a few simple ingredients can be combined for effective and inexpensive cleaning and disinfecting. At the end of the session, folks will mix and take home your own multi-purpose anti-bacterial spray cleaner, made with essential oil, liquid soap, and other ingredients.
