We need 2 helping hands to join our next festival planning committee for Beltane! Details in the previous post, thank you!

Hello community, We have decided not to host an Imbolc gathering this year as we don’t have enough hands this time around to make it happen.

With that said, we are looking for some folks who would be interested in keeping these seasonal festivals going by joining our next festival planning committee 🧚🏻

The next gathering would be Beltane (celebrated this year Saturday May 2), which is a wonderful celebration of summer energy often symbolized with the maypole and flower crowns.

Responsibilities include co-planning the vision, communicating with necessary people, assisting with setup the night or morning before the event, and cleanup.

We need this to be a village project if we want to keep stoking the community fire with these old ways!

Please contact us ([email protected]) if you are interested to join our Beltane planning committee. We need at least 2 more folks to make it happen. Thank you! 🙏🏼

Big thank you to our volunteers who helped make this rag bunting decoration for our community events!

Bunting has its roots in 17th-century Britain and early America. Originally a naval term, it referred to the lightweight wool fabric — buntine — used for flags, ribbons, and signal-flags aboard ships. By the 18th century, bunting had expanded beyond maritime use and became a beloved form of festive and patriotic decoration appearing at colonial gatherings, and becoming especially prominent during the Civil War.

Rag bunting in particular carries an echo of something older. Its tattered, wind-worn strips recall the ancient Celtic healing practice of tying rags to trees near sacred wells — the “clootie wells” of Scotland and Ireland (from the Scots word clootie, meaning cloth). Pilgrims would knot a piece of cloth to a branch, often dipped in the well’s water, believing that as the rag faded and dissolved, so too would the illness, grief, or burden it represented. Rooted in pre-Christian pagan ritual, this tradition survives into the present day — a quiet lineage that threads itself into the rustic beauty of rag bunting 🌞
