About
Healing Through the Land Wellness Event
LOCATION: The Carousel House Farm, 4300 Avenue of the Republic, Philadelphia, PA 19131
ABOUT: Join us at the Carousel House Farm in West Fairmount Park on Sunday, October 1st, from 11:00 AM- 4:00 PM for an afternoon of healing, with activities including food demonstrations, fresh food harvest, outdoor art, and mindfulness.
This event is a Healing Through the Land grassroots community initiative in collaboration with Fairmount Park Conservancy and Philadelphia Parks & Rec partnerships such as We Walk PHL, Farm Philly and Tree Philly, and Food Moxie.
The Healing Through the Land grassroots initiative is to empower communities of color throughout Philadelphia to reconnect, enjoy, and explore all the ways we have historically revered and utilized the land for our healing, nourishment, sustainability, respect, joy, spirituality, community building, and environmental justice while building upon and creating new traditions that reflect our modern needs.
We provide free healing workshops and tangible resources around health and wellness activities, food, culture, trail etiquette, stewardship, outdoor exploration, and more for community members who reside in Philadelphia.
We are reclaiming our relationship to the land, community, ancestors, and ourselves.
PARKING: There’s plenty of parking at the farm. The 38 bus stop is close by.
