What a day! The sun came out to play, and so did SunCommon with their bounce house and all the little ones who loved nothing more than jumping and having their faces painted by Shastina Rose at Railyard Apothecary!
Myra Flynn’s performance was so moving that tears were shed – what a rare and precious experience for all of us.
Our CBD & Herbs for Raising VT Families panel discussion was a big hit!! The panel featured Dr. Sarah Wylie, a naturopathic doctor and trained midwife who has prescribed CBD for treating postpartum depression; Ashley Reynolds, owner of Elmore Mountain Therapeutics and #CannaMom; Jessilyn Dolan, R.N., an expert on substance dependency during pregnancy and hemp grower; midwife assistant and herbalist Joanna Vinton; and host Shaina Levee, M.A., producer B. Love Family Festival.
Yoga + Massage with Pippa Dorfman and Corrina Snow, Womb Healing Meditation with Sandy Morningstar, Pre/Postnatal Education with Rachel Stadfeld, Mindful Parenting Workshop with Maris Rose, rad local vendors and foodies, and a sprinkling of kid activities with Amy LePage are just some of this year’s highlights. Enjoy!
