  • Herbalist Consultations: Meet experienced herbalists and discover the magic of St. John’s Wort, wild thyme, or lavender smudging for protection and joy.

🍯 Market and Refreshments

At our themed market, you will find:

  • Authentic mead – the sacred drink of the gods and a symbol of solar energy.

  • Stalls with minerals, dreamcatchers, and hand-tied wreaths.
