All proceeds will support the Michiana Herb Society and Fernwood’s Herb and Sensory Garden.

Glendora Bookshop will still be open regular business hours during this event, so be sure to stop by and say hi!

Is the winter chill bringing you down? Fernwood is here to help! Experience an afternoon indulging in the Danish practice of “hygge,” meaning cozy or comfort. Enjoy a guided hike through our nature trails, where we’ll forage for evergreen needles to make a soothing tea. Find a soft seat in Fernwood’s candlelit library to enjoy your brew, or grab some herbed broth from our outdoor fire. Glendora Bookshop will have an array of cozy-themed tales for sale, or feel free to borrow a book from Fernwood’s shelves or bring one from home. You may also wish to bring along a knit, crochet, embroidery, or mending project to work on, or start something new. Instructors will be on hand to guide you and provide additional supplies to beginners and accomplished hand workers alike. Hygge is all about connecting with the present moment and taking time to appreciate being with others. So invite a friend or family member, or plan to meet someone new!
