WORLD LABYRINTH DAY

It's our 17th season! On Saturday MAY 2 from 9am-6pm we will once again be a site for “WORLD LABYRINTH DAY” (WLD). This special day focuses on connecting people of all faiths (or none) to the beauty and peace of labyrinth walking near where they live. Petals in the Pines offers two unique woodland labyrinths, designed with a separate entrances and exits (so more than one visitor can walk without having to step aside for others).

Optional programs include Nature Journaling with Heidi Colburn from 9:30-10:30, $10/person, advanced registration strongly suggested (save $2 on WLD admission).

Yoga with Angelina Moody, by donation. Kids age 4 and up at 11 AM; Teens and Adults at 11:45-12:45.

WLD admission: $7 per person (infants are free) or FREE with a 2026 Season Pass bought on or before May 2. WLD includes both labyrinths, 2+ miles of trails/paths, plus use of the Arbor Day-certified Outdoor Classroom / play-space / picnic area. Visit www.petalsinthepines.com/world-labyrinth-day for more details. NO pets, please. Hike at your own risk--some trail sections are rocky and/or slippery when wet.
