Healing Garden: A Labor of Love
Join us in creating a healing garden on our magical property—a place where you can honor your loved ones on the other side. We are building a memorial pathway, where you can have a brick engraved in honor of your loved one. There will also be a rainbow bridge area to honor your furry loved ones.
Get Involved: We need volunteers for manual work to create this path and will be holding a Labor of Love event on May 3, 2025 at 296 Vineyard Ln, Falls, PA 18615. Helpers with heavy equipment would be greatly appreciated. Volunteers will be invited to a party afterwards! This is a great opportunity to get some exercise and meet new people!
Seeking Resources: We are looking for donations of dirt, plants & trees, shovels, rakes, etc. If you have a small business and would like to contribute, please reach out to Connected Fungirl Wellness or Endless Mountains Vineyards. Donations are tax-deductible, and we would love to feature your business name along the pathway.
Summer Series: Join us for nature and art therapy activities in June & July. We will have a tree and flower planting event where you can plant an item in honor of your loved one. In August, we will hold the initial brick ceremony, but the pathway and garden will continue to grow over time.

It’s $40 to be a vendor at this charity event (FREE for non-profits and animal welfare organizations), and Lace Village events typically draw a great crowd. Bark Bash will be promoted on social media right after some spring events on our property are over.
If you’re not familiar with Friends With Paws, they are a foster-based rescue serving dogs and cats in need throughout Lackawanna and Luzerne County. Their home base in right up the road from Lace Village, and a few pets that live in our residential buildings were FWP pets. This organization does amazing work and we’re happy to support them any way we can.
