On this morning, we will gather together at the Spring Equinox to celebrate this time of rebirth and renewal as the land is fertile with new life.
Wandering together we will learn about tree and plant lore as we celebrate the gifts they provide through song, story and craft.
There will be time for joy and simple ceremony to honour this special time of year and the awakening of the land.
This gathering offers the opportunity to remember your natural state of being in relationship with nature and to celebrate the gifts of spring. We will use established nature connection practices to awaken your senses and restore wellbeing, and offer some skills that you can take with you to practice in your daily life.
