There's a lot happening at Little Rock Farm on Saturday!
Zucchini Bread Day - 9am until 1pm
Zucchini Bread is what we're known for, so we always celebrate this national day (it really is a thing). Besides honoring the wonderful gift to the world that Zucchini Bread is, we also like to use this event as an opportunity to give to others. Part of the proceeds from Zucchini Bread Day will go to our local Campbell County Special Olympics. This is a great organization that provides those with special needs opportunities to be involved with sports and other recreational activities.
This week I'll be busy in the kitchen baking up a storm. There will be lots of flavors available. No pre-orders this time, so don't wait until the last minute to get to the farm. If you snooze, you lose.
Intentional Presence in Nature - 2pm until 4pm
This experience is all about taking time for relaxation and peace. Something that's difficult for most of us to do. It's not just about taking a hike or walk in nature, but more than that. It's about being still and present and mindful of our surroundings, how it makes us feel, finding connection to something bigger, noticing things around us that we never took time to see before.
This is a practice that I personally find so rewarding. Even when I'm back working in the pasture, I will stop and find a place to sit and take in my surroundings. It might only be for a few minutes, but it always feeds my soul.
My friend, Nancy Bloemer, will be leading us in this peaceful exercise. She is a fellow Camp Springs resident and a yoga and meditation teacher. Using the Hawaiian practice of Nalu, Nancy will guide us in being at peace with nature and ourselves . After a session with mindful meditation, we will go out into the pastures of Little Rock Farm to truly be in nature and explore the practices that Nancy will be sharing with the group.
The cost is $40 per person, paid at the day of the event. Reservations can be made via email, [email protected], but it's ok to show up without one. All are welcome!
