Mike’s Pond is a beautiful place of peace and healing just outside of Cazenovia, NY, created in memory of Michael Hackney. The expansive pond, serene trails, and gardens are the setting for the Nelson Psychic & Wellness Fair. Join us for a family-friendly day including psychic and intuitive readers, energy healers, crystals, outdoor yoga, reiki, Indian head massage, classes, door prizes, food and beverage vendors and more!

Proceeds from this event's ticket sales are a donation to the Michael Hackney Memorial Fund for Mike’s Pond - a place for others to remember Mike or their own loved ones and to connect with nature, as Mike’s Pond is often open to the community. Donations help to maintain the trails, improve accessibility for visitors, stocking the pond for, and the hosting of, the free annual Learn to Fish event. This year's proceeds will be used toward the building of a mixed use pavilion where future community events, classes and gatherings can occur.

This outdoor event is rain or shine.
