Stories, Song, and Shared Feasting around the fire to mark the meeting of Light & Night!

🔥

please note:

🌳 The day begins with a Tree-Walk in Springfield Park down the River Lea 🌳

❗️then the main gathering is in Markfield Park❗️

🐰🌼🪺

Fare thee well cold Winter, and fare thee well cold frost!

The daffodils are out, the buds are about to burst and the hares have gone mad with desire. Come gather together in the burgeoning light to awaken the Spring, and prepare ourselves for the abundance of summer.

Let's make ready our soil for the food we will cultivate and share. Let's make fertile our minds for the seeds of inspiration and transformation. Let’s nourish our bodies and our souls with the love that is our community and our gratitude for being!
It’s been a dark Winter; Let’s welcome the LIGHT

☀️🎻🔥🍄🌝

The Fountayne Fire Society will be holding a day and evening of celebrations to herald the joyful return of Spring; with all the revelry, song, stories and nonsense you have come to expect from us.

🌈 The Fountayne Fire Society is an inclusive space for everyone. We have a zero-tolerance policy for discrimination of any kind. Let’s keep the vibes warm, respectful, and welcoming for all! 🤝🧡

Join us for a walk in the park to attend to the newborn spring in all its glory.

🌱 Plant some seeds together and join activities to kindle that creative fire we’ve been dreaming about all winter! 🔥🎨

🕯️ Help us guide Persephone to the light, resurrect Inanna , and welcome Ostara! 🏛️🌅✨

✊ Get into the politics of fertility —it’s not your womb's job to prop up the economy! 🚫📈🤰

🐺 We will be joined by long-time friends of the fire, Mother Wolf Club , performing their show "NSA Quoi"! 🎭🔥🎶

These days and nights are co-created, so please bring a song, a story, food, instruments, games, facepaints, tarot cards, an offering for the shrine, a "bit", anything you think will improve the night. If you would like to get involved and help out, please do. Anyone is welcome to join the team. Just drop us a message.
