Perennial Harvest Days

October 2021

The New Perennials Project of the Champlain Valley in Vermont presents Perennial Harvest Days 2021, a series of events throughout October that share, explore and deepen the work of our New Perennials partners in Food Systems, Education, Health and Wellbeing, Creative Arts, and Faith and Sacred Practice Traditions. Events include Perennial Perspective Panels and Workshops; a month-long Art Exhibit; music, dance, and theater performances; and on-site visits and activities at Bread and Butter Farm and The Willowell Foundation. 

We hope you will attend, imagine and share with us!  Watch here in the coming weeks for more information on when, where, and how to participate.
