Fall Farm Day

Fall is a glorious time of year here at Rising fawn Gardens!  

The mountain view comes alive with a vibrant showcase of color.   Wooded trails invite you to explore as they deliver a sensory treat of leaves crunching under your feet while the earth’s smells surround you. Meandering along will lead you to the creek’s soothing babble beckoning you to stay a bit, rest, simply listen and be….

 

GATE IS OPEN FROM 10 AM to 2 PM

We invite you to come for one of our scheduled events or simply come to wander and walk the trails, visit the gardens, or bring a picnic to enjoy by the creek. All events meet at the Yoga House.

 

10:30 – 11:30 – Farm Tour

Join Courtney on an informational and seasonal tour of the farm. Visit the gardens and trails while you hear from our Gardens’ Manager about our unique crops, land history and stewardship, and what it takes to manage and care for the diversity of life on the farm.

 

12:00 – 12:30 – All about Mushrooms

Our garden assistant, Ali, has a special affinity for mushrooms!  Join her for a mushroom tasting and discussion of the nutritional benefits of mushrooms. We’ll try shiitake, lion’s mane, and oyster mushrooms and learn some simple, delicious recipes for incorporating them into your everyday life. 

 

12:00 – 12:30 – Kids + Nature = Crafts
It’s creativity time for our young nature lovers ages 3 and up! The natural surroundings provide many beautiful and useful ways to create art.
