Fertile Ground Gathering was a spectacular success, in no small part because of the wonderful people who came to share it with us!

Announcements:

Lost and Found

There were a number of items left behind at Fertile Ground, including children's toys and a shirt. If you believe that you may have lost something, please contact us so that we can reunite you with your stuff!

Special thanks: our old friends from DragonSong!

On the first two evenings of our Gathering, DragonSong came, and played, and shared, and the Gathering was blessed to have them. We hope that they will come and play with us again, for many years to come!

Special thanks: our new friends from To The Earth!

To The Earth came and performed for us at our Great Feast on May 9. In addition, they also taught a marvelous workshop that several of our guests and staff participated in. Perhaps they'll come back next year and play again!

Special thanks: Rev. Tom "Midnight" Vandeberg!

Because of an unforeseen circumstance, we had to scramble to replace our Tarot reader at the last moment, and Tom stepped up to the plate, bringing not only his knowledge of the cards, but also of drumming, to share with us. If you want to spend more time with Tom, consider attending Midsummer at the Cove!

Special thanks: Dorothy Morrison!

Dorothy came out and signed books and talked with us and in general was just a really sweet lady. We enjoyed having her among us, and we hope that she'll come back again next year.

Special thanks: John Curtis Crawford and Bridget Wolfe!

We met John and Bridget at FaerieCon 2008, and we loved them so much that we had to invite them to come to share Fertile Ground Gathering with us! They flew across the country to be here, and they taught so much to so many, and touched so many hearts and minds that it's too much to write here. We hope that the path they walk will lead them back to Fertile Ground again!

Fertile Ground Gathering will be returning in 2010!

Dates and location are tentative - check back later for more information.

May 6-9 2010, Prince William Forest Park, Triangle, VA

Fertile Ground is a family-friendly Beltane festival which offers fantastic workshops and services, diverse rituals, spectacular entertainment, drum circles and dancing around nightly bonfires, cabin camping, fantastic meals, some very special guests and of course, dancing around the maypole!

Our first two events were amazing successes, and we're looking forward to doing it again - even better! We'd love for you to join us!

See you next Beltane!
