This is a FREE EVENT where Mother Nature will offer a blessing and protection for our pets, pet families, and all animals in an interactive live performance.

Taylor park to receive an animal blessing from the forest fairies of California’s grand coastal redwoods. Participate in this annual ritual to bless and to protect the future bond between us and our furry friends. We are making this offering to our friends, family, neighbors in Marin County and beyond to raise money for the local animal rescue operations.
