Songs for the Season:
a Spring Celebration with Land Heart Song + Pete Moss
Celebrate the spring by singing along with Land Heart Song + Pete Moss for an interactive fun-filled nature-rich performance for the whole family!
On Saturday, May 23rd, bring the whole family to enjoy an afternoon of nature play, nature connection, and of course, TWO fabulous & fun sing-along performances with Land Heart Song + Pete Moss!
It has been a while since we’ve hosted one of these truly magical musical performances in the woods and we are so excited to welcome Land Heart Song BACK for another and to welcome Pete Moss for the first time!
We invite you to arrive around 11:30am so that you have time to engage in some nature play, exploration of the woods, and general settling in before the music starts! Land Heart Song + Pete Moss will dazzle, delight, and most definitely engage the whole family from ~12:30-3:00pm – a time to gather as a community on the Land to bask in songs & stories, play with some puppets & props, explore our voices & nature, and celebrate the season! We will have a variety of seating available but encourage you to bring a picnic lunch, and stick around afterwards to play a little more!
This event is open to all ages, however, please note that our regular programs & site are geared towards children 2-13 years of age. This event has a schedule that we aim to stick to, however, as always, our programs & events are child-led, so feel free to be in & out of the space as your child needs.

About Pete Moss:
Pete Moss (a.k.a. Peter Demakos) is an award winning children’s musician who connects people of all ages with the natural world. Drawing inspiration from Eastern North American birds, plants and weather, Pete’s songs inspire empathy, wonder and affection toward living things.
Pete’s albums Plants Rock (2019) and Birds Rock (2021) are grounded in the principle that building positive relationships between young people and local environments encourages future stewardship. His work aims to shine a light on everyday living things often overlooked in the children’s songbook. Red Winged Blackbirds, Milkweed plants and Juncos are brought to life through joyous, catchy, often emotionally impactful songs.
As a children’s musician, Pete performs at schools, libraries, provincial parks, music festivals and birthday parties across Ontario. Pete also works as a child and adolescent therapist candidate in his hometown of Toronto.
