Spend the Fourth of July at Daniel Stowe Conservancy during Red, White, + Blooms, a patriotic celebration filled with family activities, outdoor adventures, and summertime fun. Set against the backdrop of the conservancy’s gardens and green spaces, this event offers a festive way to celebrate the holiday with family and friends.

The day begins with a Neighborhood Parade through The Village at Stowe, where children and families can showcase their patriotic spirit by decorating wagons, strollers, scooters, and bicycles before taking a scenic route around the Big Pond Loop. Car enthusiasts can also enjoy the Cars + Coffee gathering, featuring classic and specialty vehicles alongside fellow automotive fans.

Through gates at the Gardens at Stowe, guests will find lawn games, carnival-style activities, seasonal treats, face painting, and hands-on crafts inspired by Independence Day. Families can also enjoy a trackless train ride aboard Little Blue Choo, explore the Adventure Trail, complete a holiday flower scavenger hunt, and let imaginations run wild at the Prairie Castle playground.

Visitors can refuel throughout the day with offerings from local food trucks, refreshing beverages, and grab-and-go favorites available on-site.

Whether you’re looking for classic small-town holiday fun, outdoor family activities, or a unique way to celebrate Independence Day, Red, White + Blooms offers something for all ages.
