✨Join us for a peaceful and rejuvenating morning at Smoke Crest Farm and Animal Sanctuary while supporting two meaningful causes. This special **Fundraiser Retreat** offers a chance to slow down, reconnect with nature, and experience the healing energy of the sanctuary’s beautiful **220-acre farm**.
The morning will include a series of restorative wellness experiences:
**60-Minute Yoga Session** to ground your body and mind
**60-Minute Sound Bath** for deep relaxation and energetic balance
**Energy Cleansing & Clearing Session** to release and reset
Prefer a slower pace? You’re welcome to simply **wind down and enjoy the peaceful setting**. Guests can relax with scenic views, **explore and hike the farm’s trails**, or spend time **connecting with the sanctuary animals**.
Guests will enjoy an **elegant buffet brunch**, featuring:
Fresh fruit
Bagels with smoked salmon
Yogurt & granola
Fresh celery shots
**Proceeds from this event will support the ongoing care of the animals at Smoke Crest Farm and help fund Steve Coate's journey to compete in the Deaflympics**, helping cover training, travel, and competition expenses.
Whether you come for the movement, the healing experiences, or the peaceful countryside, this retreat is a beautiful way to **nourish your body, calm your mind, and give back to an inspiring community and cause**.
Come breathe, connect, and support something truly meaningful.
