About the Wellness Village…
The Shelter Valley Folk Festival is a grassroots family
event, featuring multiple stages with performers from across
the continent and around the corner, an exceptional array
of talented artists, fabulous hands-on programming for children
of all ages, family camping, fine local and organic food,
and a wellness area where festival-goers can explore new
options for health, well-being, and sustainable living.

A key element of the festival is an area we call "The
Village", which hosts artists' displays and workshops,
fine food service, and specific to this application the Wellness
and Sustainable Living areas. As organizers we have chosen
not to rent space in the village; rather, to jury all participants
in order to create a unique and vibrant Festival Village for
the weekend that will support the participating contributors
and encourage festival-goers to learn about and share in the
experience.
With this approach we hope to provide a more integrated experience,
and enhance the opportunity for the community to understand
the options in alternative health and wellness.
We are looking for contributors willing to interact with our
audience and demonstrate their area of interest. In this way
contributors become part of the Festival team presenting a
unique weekend experience for the community.
