Dandelion Run/Walk/Bike

DERBY, VERMONT – With the solstice soon upon us, sugaring continues, and High Spring in The Kingdom is not far behind. In just ten weeks, the world famous Dandelion Fields of Morgan, Holland and Derby will be covered with millions and millions of dandelions, trumpeting the coming of Summer’s miracle in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont.

We be back this year, hosting our traditional Half Marathon on hilly dirt roads through these fields, sprinkled with musicians along the way. Shorter, more forgiving distances include 10 km, 4 mile, 2 mile, 1 mile options. Registration is open. Registration closes on May 18, 2022.

It’s the bees first feast of the year. We welcome back Barr Hill at Caledonia Spirits with their honey based gins and vodkas. And, deep thanks to Community National Bank for underwriting the Dandy again this year.

Registration fees include Friday’s Dandy Pasta Dinner at the EastSide Restaurant, with music by the Wicked Good Patti Casey and Colin McCaffrey. Melts our hearts every time we hear her song, Dandelion.

Join us to Celebrate the Dandies, Honor Terri Weed, and Fundraise for Umbrella. It’s May! It’s Time to Run! Just for the Fun of It!
