Once upon a time, the harvest moon was a time for humans to gather crops under the bright light of the final full moon of the summer. Celebrate this joyous time with us with an evening of foraging, food, and drinks.

At this program, we’ll:  

  • Feast on light bites made with native, local fruits 
  • Enjoy a cold glass of wine or a local beer  
  • Hike to gaze at the moon  
  • Hunt for pawpaws in the pawpaw grove 
  • Bask in the warmth of the waning summer nights on the Krippendorf Lodge’s covered outdoor terrace 

There will be appetizers offered at this program, made from a number of locally-foraged and sourced ingredients. While we cannot promise to accommodate every food allergy or dietary restriction, we will certainly try our best. If you have a food allergy or dietary restriction that you would like our staff to know about, please email Laura Weinel at lweinel@cincynature.org no later than Monday, September 5 at 5:00 pm.

Please note: 

  • This program designed for 21+; please have your ID available.
  • This program takes place outdoors; dress for comfort and the weather, in layers for warmth. 
  • Please wear appropriate footwear to participate in the easy, short hike down relatively flat terrain. The optional hike is approximately 1/2 mile in length.

Participants should meet at the Krippendorf Lodge at our Rowe Woods location (4949 Tealtown Rd, Milford, OH 45150).
