Ready to drop some LBS? Loneliness | Burnout | Stress! Come for the nature walk, good vibes and convos, leave with meaningful connections!
Join us for a grounding and joy-filled nature experience at Porte Noire Gardens, a 14-acre, Black-owned farm in the heart of downtown Franklinton, where creativity meets nature. This beautiful space offers a rare blend of tranquility and versatility—winding walking trails with gentle streams and lush natural scenery throughout.
As we move through the property, we’ll experience the Al’Umma Art Walk, an immersive outdoor trail featuring a rotating mix of local visual artists woven into the landscape. Art, nature, and movement come together to create space for reflection, conversation, and connection. Paint experiences will also be available!
After our 3-mile loop, we’ll slow things down and enjoy lunch by a serene reflection pond—the perfect setting to rest, connect, and soak in the moment.
