Come join us for a Samhain ritual to remember the dead and thank the sleeping fields, forests, and gardens.
Samhain is a Gaelic festival marking the end of the harvest season and beginning of winter.
We will dress like death, make a procession through the field to the pine forest, stopping along the way to honor the dead and sing to the trees, fields, and sky. At the pine forest, all are invited to make altars for their dead. Biodegradable only please! Food, drink, flowers, moss, rocks, shells, etc. Bring a song, poem or letter to share if you like. We will end with a bonfire and bread.
This is a participatory event, not a performance. Wear black or white. Bring an instrument, if you like. Fiddles, hurdy gurdies and music boxes especially welcome. Bring a candle lantern. The event will take place rain or shine outside and will involve walking, so dress accordingly.
