Earth Day in Autumn
Live Well Be Well
Harvest Festival
11:00am - 4:00pm
Free Admission, $2.00 Parking
Earth Day in Autumn features environmental and conservation exhibits as well as a demonstration with live birds of prey presented by the Delaware Valley Raptors Center.
This year Earth Day will expand to incorporate a Live Well Be Well focus. By taking care of our well-being we are enhancing the well-being of the Earth. The Festival will interlace Yoga, Art and Healing to increase environmental awareness and build community. Yoga means "unity" -uniting mind, body, and breath to a connection with the elements of the earth.
Join us to indulge in the varied physical, social and healing aspects of Yoga ranging from Gentle Yoga to Vinyasa, from Meditation to Family Yoga, and more. Classes throughout the day will be provided by teachers from Sullivan and Orange counties. A special class “Kai chi do” is all about the earth and the 5 elements.
Groove to the meditative sounds of live music in the tent with World Music by Obi and Nikolai Ruskin playing traditional Middle Eastern music, World Fusion, and Indian.
