Agritopia Farm Tour
Scheduled

Agritopia Farm Tour

This is more than a walk along the fields... Our Seasonal Farm Tour is designed for curious individuals who want to understand the story behind their food — the history of this land, the decisions that have shaped how we farm, and the seasonal rhythms that guide everything we do.

A member of our staff will take you through:

  • The history of Agritopia Farm and the land it sits on

  • How our land's history has shaped our current farming practices

  • A look at our seasonal operations and what we're growing right now

  • A tasting of fresh, seasonal produce harvested right from the farm

Tours run approximately 1 to 1.5 hours and are geared toward adult guests. We recommend comfortable, closed-toe shoes and weather-appropriate clothing as the tours will take place outside.

Rooted in Resonance at Maricopa Botanicals

[caption id="attachment_10883" align="alignnone" width="300"]@maricopa.botantical @maricopa.botantical @celestrial_sonic[/caption]

Tuesday, June 23rd • 7:00pm – 8:15pm Maricopa Botanicals • Gilbert, AZ

Join us for an evening of relaxation and connection surrounded by the calming energy of nature.

This immersive sound healing experience invites you to slow down, settle into the present moment, and allow the soothing vibrations of crystal singing bowls, chimes, and other healing instruments to guide you into a state of deep rest. Nestled among the plants, you’ll be held in a space that encourages grounding, reflection, and renewal.

Plants and sound share a beautiful relationship! Both invite us to reconnect with the natural world.

Just as plants remind us to root, grow, and thrive. Sound can help quiet the mind, release tension, and create space for balance and clarity. Together, they offer a gentle environment to nurture both body and spirit.

What to Bring:

• A yoga mat (or two if you’d like extra cushioning, as we’ll be on a concrete floor)

• A pillow, blanket, or anything that helps you feel cozy and supported

• Water

• An open mind and a willingness to receive

Whether you’re new to sound healing or it’s already part of your wellness practice, this experience is designed to help you unwind, recharge, and leave feeling a little more grounded than when you arrived.

Limited spots available. Ticket Required.
