As we wrap up the Explore Summer day camp program, we want to extend our heartfelt gratitude to the program staff (Mallory and Ethan) and participants for making this year another fantastic experience! The primary goal of the Explore Summer program is to provide activities that foster personal growth and empowerment for all participants. Each activity is designed to allow participants to:
~ Create new friendships
~ Build self-confidence
~ Develop valuable skills
~ Explore their community

Some of the standout moments from this year included:
~ Day camping and hiking adventures
~ Visits to state and county parks
~ Excursions to the Wildlife Sanctuary, the zoo, Wilson’s Wish, and a tour of a semi-truck and Pagel Ponderosa
~ Opportunities to see animals and exhibits at the Kewaunee County and Door County Fairs
~ An exploration of maritime history with a visit to the Tall Ships in Sturgeon Bay..and so much more! We eagerly look forward to 2026 when we can do it all over again! ✨

Just over a week away from Lavender & Light: A yoga benefit for ESI at Glen Innish Farm. We hope to see you there! 🪻

Join us in the lavender field for an evening of movement, stillness, and community.

On Tuesday, August 19 from 6:30–7:30 pm, we’re hosting Lavender & Light: A Yoga Benefit for ESI in Algoma—a donation-based, slow vinyasa flow led by Ginny Lee, whose personal journey into yoga is as inspiring as her teaching.

This all-levels practice will take place surrounded by blooming lavender under the open sky. Stay after to walk the fields, sip lavender lemonade, and connect with the land and one another.

All proceeds support ESI’s mission to empower individuals with disabilities and autism—an organization close to our hearts here at Glen Innish Farm.

Suggested donation: $20
15% of Farm Store sales from 4:00 pm through class will also benefit ESI
Reserve your spot here – or just come the evening of

Bring your mat, your breath, and your heart. We can’t wait to welcome you.
