We'd like to thank Rhianna Vogan for helping us celebrate Yoga Day! Rhianna owns In Bloom Bespoke Wellness and is a Personal Trainer and Nutritionist. Many times you can find her leading classes at the Bell Family YMCA as well as working with moms on their health goals with Doula at Hart. She offered this free class to the community in honor of International Yoga Day. Doula at Hart sponsored it as a way for moms to get together and get to know eachother while their kids were busy.
If you've never been to the Botanical Gardens, it's a real treasure in Hart County. I had no clue it existed for a few years!
Located at 1277 Elberton Hwy, Hartwell, GA 30643, when you enter the Recreation area, follow the signs to the right and the entrance is tucked into the corner. The Gardens boast a covered pavilion area, water features, walkways, trails, kids playground area, fairy garden, amphitheater and a favorite, A "Moon House" which is quite popular for Yoga gatherings. We've personally taken yoga classes here before and it's quite peaceful.
Right now is the perfect time to visit and see all of the gorgeous flowers and pathways. Each time we visit there is something new to see. This year there has been a great addition of tree carvings. The kids love to see those as well as the Gnome/Fairy Garden. Pack a lunch and sit at the playground and relax in the shade of the trees.
There is also a Little Free Library in the Childrens Park area. You can plan to bring some books you may not want and leave them there or take home a few with you.
