The Tween and Teen Esbat group will meet for our public ritual on Saturday 14 January at 6pm. $5 suggested donation

A small pot luck will follow ritual. Because we meet at a traditional dinner time, making sure you and your kids have a little snack before you arrive is a good idea. Please no soda, nuts, peanuts, or candy. Bring a cold dish or something in a crock pot.

This public event is open to families with children aged 10 to 18 who are interested in taking part in rituals. Many of the tweens who participate take turns as the high priest or priestess of the evening, working with one of the adults running the group.

Pagan Family Annual Apple Picking at Tougas Farm – 9/18/2016

PFC Apple Picking

 

Join the Pagan Families for an afternoon of apple picking and fun at Tougas Farm in Northborough, MA on Sunday 18 September at 1 pm.

This is not a ritual and craft day. This is a time to hang out and pick fruit and go on a tractor ride together. We end our afternoon by watching the kids on the playground and chatting.

We don’t use any signage to indicate who we are, as this is a busy public place. So if this is your first time joining the Pagan Families for an event, please message us here.

Annual Lammas Faire for All Ages – 8/7/2016

Sunday August 7,  12 – 5 PM:
Lammas Faire for All Ages

At:     Unitarian Church of Marlborough and Hudson

Fee: $5 – will include $5 worth of raffle or bake-off tickets for you to use or share!

Games! Vendors! Arts & Crafts! Bake-Off!
Opening & Closing Ritual Circles! Bring your own picnic lunch.
(No Alcohol at this venue.)

 

The ritual will be based on an Egyptian New Year’s blessing of temple statuary. So bring a sacred item you’d like blessed as part of the ritual. 

 

Don’t forget – we have indoor space this year. So in case of inclement weather, all games will be inside. All vendors, the bake off and the raffle will also be indoors.

 

If you are interested in being a vendor for the Faire, please contact Kara at: karareneelmt@gmail.com

 

—> Rules for the 2016 Lammas Bake-Off:

1. This year’s Bake Off Theme: Summer Fruits! The refreshing succulent flavor of Summer Fruit must be a main element in your baked goods.

The item can be anything baked. Cookies, bars, cake, muffins, crepes, cobblers, you name it! As long as that seasonal fruit flavor comes through. Use lemon juice, lemon zest, lemon extract . . . you get the idea.

BUT! (you knew there would be a catch, right?) We’re adding a challenge: NO chocolate. Nope, not any. Your luscious treats will stand on their fruit-a-liciousness alone.

2. All entries must be made from scratch.

3. Entrants must bring enough to have about 40 samples
(not full servings, just a taste – think sample tables).

4. All entries must be accompanied by a full list of ingredients.

5. The winner will be announced during the Closing Circle.

Let the baking begin! Judges for the contest will be those attending the Faire; it will cost $1 to sample and vote. If you are interested in baking, or have questions, please email us: SEF@ElderFaiths.org.

Watch this space for more info!
