ABOUT Ithaca
The Finger Lakes are a destination in all four seasons and September is breathtaking! Featuring 11 pristine lakes in the heart of upstate New York, Ithaca is located at the base of Cayuga Lake.
Late summer is our favorite time of year to really showcase all that Ithaca has to offer. The farmers market (a local favorite) is packed with colorful veggies, the water is sparkling in the sunshine, and the whole world is blanketed in every shade of green imaginable.
Being located at the base of Cayuga Lake, and surrounded by an astonishing 150+ waterfalls, we are blessed with the magic of water all around us. Whatever weekend you come we will be relishing in the power of the waters of this place.
A small but mighty city, Ithaca is a place of culture and adventure. With two higher educational institutions, Ithaca has an influx of fresh energy each fall with the return of college students, giving it a youthful vibe.
Meals
catered onsite meals from La Tourelle and partner chefs
We will share a variety of menus from across the world together. La Tourelle is a kitchen like no other, and we will explore cuisines from Asia, the Mediterranean, and all-American plates.
We will open with a special reception dinner with tantalizing mezze platters and a three-course meal. The rest of the week will bring us food truck lunches and platter-style shared dinners. Breakfasts will be hearty and set us up for a day full of activities.
Discover Serenity at August Moon Spa
August Moon Spa is an essential part of the La Tourelle experience—a peaceful wellness space nestled on the hotel’s scenic 70-acre property.
Since 2005, our spa has offered high-quality treatments in a serene, nurturing environment that reflects the natural beauty of the Finger Lakes.
Guests can explore the wooded trails leading from Ithaca by Firelight to Upper Buttermilk Falls, reconnecting with nature just steps from their room.
With thoughtful therapies, heartfelt hospitality, and a tranquil setting, August Moon Spa offers a restorative retreat for the mind, body and spirit.
Yoga Farm will not provide transportation. The closest airports are Ithaca, Syracuse, or Elmira. Getting around with Uber is doable or you may consider renting a car.

Student Reviews
Waking up with the sun, and going to mantra was surprisingly one of my favorite parts of every day. I didn’t have many expectations coming into the retreat and everyone was amazing, I connected with people from all different walks of life, and through these newfound friendships, I found transformation in how I walk through the world. The balance of programming and downtime was perfect. I am so grateful that I took this time for myself, I can feel how taking a step back from my day-to-day life has already shifted my interior landscape.
Emma R
It was more than a retreat, it was a spiritual awakening. As someone who would say they are an introvert, everything I had in my head about how this was going to be a hard experience, immediately disappeared with the incredible support created during the retreat. I am walking away with amazing friendships and a new sense of who I am.

This retreat helped me realize how you gain something special every time you go on one. Yoga Farm carefully curates the schedule in such a nourishing way, for your mind and body, you can tell there’s a lot of thought and heart that goes into the planning. It’s the only way to travel for me now. The community you create and the friendships you make are something that you don’t find in your normal life. Retreats are necessary, it’s an invitation to just take care of yourself.
