Available Activities Include:

• Forest Walks with Sarah Deumling
  Learn more about the Zena Forest and how we focus on restoration and building resilience in this mixed-species forest. Sarah has inspired multiple generations with her deep knowledge and incredible passion for this intricately interwoven ecosystem.

• Tours of the Mill with Ben Deumling
  We feel that every tree from the Zena Forest is beautiful and unique, and that each one has its own story to tell. Follow how the harvested trees journey through our mill and how the Zena Crew lovingly handcrafts them into wide plank flooring, EdgeGrain, stairs, and vents. Our work here in turn supports our regenerative efforts both here in the Zena Forest as well as forests across Oregon.

• A Morning Meditation in the Woods
  The Zena Forest is a rare and beautiful space that is ready to help you step away from busy and fast paced days for a moment. Emily Deumling invites you to join her for a morning meditation while enjoying the deep hush of the forest, the feel of the crisp autumn air, and the rich smells of fall.

• Botany Hikes
  Join James McAullife for a ramble and exploration of the endlessly fascinating, diverse, and interwoven lives of the plants that call the Zena Forest home.

• Bundwerk Timber Framing
  Drop in and visit Reuben Deumiling and his current work building his Bundwerk inspired workshop. You might feel like you have been transported to Austria or Bavaria. His passion for wood and love for the intricate comes to life in this meticulously crafted building.

• Fun for Kids and Families
  Activities include a family friendly forest walk with Sarah in the morning, a nature scavenger hunt, and an area where kids can play with toy trucks and sawdust.

We look forward to seeing you here.
