💜 Join Us for a Purple Powder Color Run at Shades of Lavender!
🌻 Saturday, August 2nd • Starting at 11:30 AM
🧘♀️Get ready to embrace joy, movement, and nature at our first-ever Lavender Run! The fun begins at 11:30 AM in our sunflower fields with a Sun Salutation Yoga Flow, designed to stretch your running muscles and awaken your inner sunflower. The yoga session is optional but highly encouraged, and will be followed by an optional cool-down meditation after the run.
🌿 This is a BYO yoga mat event, but if you don’t have one, no worries! You’re welcome to enjoy the yoga flow on the soft summer grass and unwind afterward in one of our many cozy hammocks hung around the property.
🏃♂️ The Lavender Run begins at 12:00 PM by the greenhouse. The route winds through the forest, into the lavender fields, around the perimeter of the property, and finishes back through the Moon Gate 🌙— one of two color checkpoints, where our employees will be waiting with squirt guns filled with an eco-friendly mix of purple mica powder and cornstarch!
Each loop is 0.35 miles, and the course will be completed six times for a total of 2.1 miles (3.4 km).
