The garden is covered in colorful flora, comfortable seating, and over 300 monarch butterflies. This is a special place to find solitude and reflect on memories. All butterflies are released in a special ceremony at sunset. Chakra Bowl Meditation will take place in the Butterfly Memorial Garden.

Rock The Farm Festival is a benefit and 100% of the proceeds go directly to CFC Loud N Clear Foundation. CFC provides free services to over 15,000 families battling addiction in the State of New Jersey. The festival is about connection, friendship, hope, and music.
