The Lavender Lair: Lion’s Gate
The ELSEWHERE nomadic tea temple is coming to Loving Kindness Lavender Farm for a summer series devoted to healing through movement, creativity, music, and connection.
Together, we’ll transform the land into a vibrant outdoor gathering space featuring immersive workshops, live performances, shared meals, and moments to reconnect with ourselves, each other, and the living world around us. Part retreat, part micro-festival, this is a choose-your-own-adventure gathering and create a day that feels most nourishing for YOU. Drop in for one workshop or stay for the whole day!
We hope you’ll join us for Lion’s Gate at The Lavender Lair as we tend to the collective mind, body, and spirit through embodied practice, creative expression, playful collaboration, and the simple magic of gathering together in the sunshine.
This gathering is a practice of collective care and co-creation. Expect an atmosphere of warmth, inspiration, aliveness, community and radical participation.
