Honoring Lammas

This E-Zine is chock full of content about the first harvest in the wheel of the year. Includes concepts, rituals, crafts and more! 🌾

Lammas is one of the first of three harvest festivals. It is the start of the end of this potent time of sunshine and warmth, and the start of the preparations for darker, cooler times. It may seem like Summer is eternal, but Lammas occurs right before the heat breaks, so we pay attention to this holiday and start our preparations. Lammas is celebrated with bread, the Christian appropriation of this holiday is called “Loaf Mass,” as it is the time our European ancestors would start to harvest grain.
