This fall, Florida's leading provider of  nature-based wellness and eco-experiences launches the Monthly Event Series Celebrating Nature, Food, and Community, Starting October 2024

Coming this Fall, the ChoZen Eco-Retreat & Sanctuary, Florida's leading provider of nature-based wellness and eco-experiences in Sebastian, FL, is launching the very first ChoZen Artisan Market. This monthly event celebrates the interconnectedness of nature, food, and community and will take place every second Sunday from October 13th, 2024, to May 11th, 2025, from 10 AM to 5 PM at Harvest House Community Center  & Love Garden at ChoZen Eco-Retreat & sanctuary.

Through this launch, ChoZen is committed to channeling resources back into Florida's creative, wellness, and artisan communities. Starting on October 13th, guests from all over Florida and beyond can come and enjoy a variety of unique local vendors offering sustainable products and artisan goods. ChoZen's Artisan Market is a place where visitors can support small businesses and sustainable practices in the region. While on-site, you can shop from over 33 farmers, makers, artisans, and local & regional small businesses. In addition, guests can take part in permaculture tours to learn about sustainable farming and eco-friendly practices at ChoZen Farm, enjoy wellness experiences, eat locally grown earth-to-table meals, hear live music, and more. 

Tony & Ximena Cho, co-founders of ChoZen, invite local artist communities, wellness practitioners, local musicians, and creatives across the state to join in the ChoZen Artisan Market. They share, “ChoZen’s Artisan Market launch is where we cultivate community resources and empower small businesses to support one another. This initiative aims to return revenue and resources to the independent artists, makers, and creatives across the state.” The pair envision a circular economy and a way of life that encompasses regenerative art, music & design, balance & well-being, earth-to-table cuisine, and immersive educational experiences on their land at ChoZen.
"There are so many incredible places around the world but what is really an incredible opportunity for us is to take care of our own backyard and the small independent artists, musicians and businesses within it from around the state,” says Ximena.

This event is free to the public; all are welcome. To stay up to date on news and announcements, you can sign up here. To apply to be a vendor, you can apply to the programming on their website here
