Summer Solstice Celebration

We’re inviting you to celebrate this most magical and mystical time of year with your family and friends here at FarmED, nestled in the beautiful Evenlode Valley. You’ll enjoy an evening of delicious seasonal food, walking around the farm, meditation, flower crown crafting and music.

The word ‘solstice’ comes from the Latin sol (sun) and sistere (to stand still) and the Summer Solstice falls when the sun reaches its farthest point from the equator, making it the longest day of the year.  In ancient times, flower crowns were traditionally worn, the fairy world was believed to be close by and people lit bonfires and danced all night to boost the sun’s strength to ensure a healthy harvest.

Many solstice traditions focus on reconnecting with nature and you’re guaranteed a magical evening, spotting the abundant wildlife on the farm on a guided walk that takes in the heritage orchard, natural flood management, meadows and kitchen garden.

We will be joined by popular, local folk band, who will be entertaining us whilst we enjoy a delicious farm-to-fork meal. We’ll also be welcoming along local wellness coach Sarah from Brave Kind Minds who will be running a meditation session, as well as florist Lauren who’ll be teaching us how to craft a beautiful flower crown.

Arrive for 6pm for a welcome drink, ready for your selected activity to start at 6:30pm. The activities will be followed by a delicious farm-to-fork seasonal meal, music and drinks to bring in the summer!

Please choose the activity you’d like to take part in when you select your ticket. Please note, this evening is aimed for 12 years and older, and children must be accompanied by an adult on their chosen activity.
