🌿Join us at Bentley Urban Farm as we mark the end of the harvest season with a Samhain fire and craft with foraged materials.
We'll be....
• Using foraged foliage to create an emblem to be used to support us in the turning of the seasons.
• Exploring the historical importance of celebrating the seasons in the UK, and how we can reconnect with these traditions.
• Sharing folklore's of craft, plants and the herbs we work with through story or song.
• Having some cuppas of fresh herbal tea and chatting about the benefits of the herbs we use.
What's this 'Samhain' about?...
In a time before 31st October was all trick-or- treating and Tescos fangs sweets, this maked the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain. Traditionally celebrated on October 31st to November 1st, it's a time of mystery and remembrance - it's a time we mark the end of the harvest season as we head into the darker months.
