A LITTLE TONIC, A LITTLE CPR AND A WHOLE LOTTA BEN & JERRY’S!
DON’T MISS THE ELEVENTH ANNUAL ONE WORLD ONE HEART¨ FESTIVAL
SOUTH BURLINGTON, VT - Ben & Jerry’s One World One Heart festival is the way to welcome summer in style. Hot music and cool Ben & Jerry’s ice cream makes this 11th annual event a ’must’ for New Englanders. In addition to nationally renowned musical talent, festival-goers enjoy a smorgasbord of feel-good activities. Make a pit stop at the Pin Palooza booth or make your mark at the Natural Imprints table, take a brief respite in the Rain Room, ride the chair lift, dig into the fabulous fare from local vendors, register to vote, write a Postcard for Change. This is one long, lazy, hazy, crazy day of summer that you can’t miss.
