A group of people walk up a dirt path towards a tree-covered hill.

Join LandPaths, Common Thread Yoga, and Ag + Open Space District for a hike around the beautiful Myers preserve to warm up before doing a heart-centered yoga session. After yoga we will enjoy lunch together, take in the beauty of the preserve, and root ourselves in nature. This outing is part of LandPaths' new Branch Out series, centering LGBTQ+ community members with the purpose of creating a sense of belonging and inclusive spaces in the outdoors. Allies are welcomed! All abilities and experience levels are welcome to tag along to this outing.

This event is free thanks to the support of Ag + Open Space District.

About the area:

This nearly 800 acre preserve stewarded by LandPaths in western Sonoma County teems with native coastal grasslands, canyons, pristine ponds and streams, mixed oak woodlands, redwoods, and a habitat garden that benefits pollinators, birds, and humans alike. A breath-taking abundance of plant and animal life call this place home. Thanks to strong community interest, a small group of angel funders, and the promise that Ocean Song’s stunning beauty would be locally owned and protected forever, LandPaths was able to purchase the land and start cleaning up the property in November 2019. Since then, LandPaths has continued to invest in cleaning up Ocean Song’s old buildings and resolving a lengthy list of code violations from prior to when we became the property’s stewards.

What to bring:

Bottle of water, snacks, and lunch for the day
Comfortable clothing to protect from the sun (hat, sunglasses, sunscreen)
Comfortable walking shoes (that can get dirty)
Yoga mat
