Sunflower Day!
"Keep your face to the sunshine and you cannot see the shadow. It's what sunflowers do."
― Helen Keller
We're celebrating sunflowers this weekend! Bring a smile to your face, sunshine to your home, or a burst of color to your holiday picnic table with a single stem or a whole bouquet! Apple Ridge Farm, Blooming Glen Farm, and Pheasant Hill Farm will all have gorgeous sunflowers available for purchase. Scratch will be our featured brewer in the Local Libations Tent this Saturday, and Mud & Maker will be on site with some sassy sunflower pottery. And be sure to stop by the Merch tent to Pick-a-Sunflower Discount!
For the Kids
Look for sunflower crafts with Revitalize with Rebecca, and sunflower river rock painting at the ACE tent!
This week's POP program features free, all-natural face-painting with Miss Charlotte. Kids can choose from sunflowers, or their favorite fruit or veggie and learn all about them too. And don't miss the Kids' Mindfulness Workshop with Betsey Thompson at 10:30am.
