Enjoy live music under the stars\, relax by the warm glow of the campfire\, and then embark on a peaceful firefly walk to witness their natural light show. This is the perfect event for families\, couples\, and anyone who wants to soak in the beauty of a summer night on the farm. \nYour $15 ticket includes: \nEntry to the Glow Wild All-Ages Dance Party (7:30-9:30pm) \nA guided or self-paced firefly walk following the dance party \nCampfire with marshmallows (weather permitting) \nOptional glow-themed activities will be available as paid add-ons for those who wish to deepen their experience. \nGood to know: This is an all-ages event and children must be accompanied by an adult \nDate & Time: Sat.

SUMMARY:Family Yoga with Bunnies
DESCRIPTION:Celebrate the start of summer vacation with family bunny yoga! Slow down\, stretch\, and connect at Blue Dot Acres\, a small suburban farm in Burlington. \nThis playful yet calming class combines simple yoga poses\, mindful movement\, and time spent near our free-roaming bunnies.

No yoga experience is needed\, and the focus is on connection rather than perfect poses. After class\, families are welcome to linger\, take photos\, visit the farm shop\, and enjoy a simple farm experience rooted in care for animals\, nature\, and each other. \nCome for the bunnies\, stay for the calm.
