Description of Event:
Join us in the 18th annual festival of merriment, feasting and the beauty of Spring in the countryside. Mayday, 'somour games', was a popular holiday in the middle ages. Young folk and others would venture into the woods before daybreak, or the night before, to gather wild flowers, greenery, and hawthorn boughs. Sometimes the young men would carry back a tree trunk, stripped of branches, to be redecorated with flowers and long ribbons. Many towns had a year-round Maypole in their village square around which villagers would enjoy dancing, games, contests, choosing a May Queen, and feasting. Craft Shops and Booths will open at noon. Crafters will demonstrate garland weaving, wool dyeing, blacksmithing, shoemaking, pottery, hearth cooking, and candle making. Hours: Noon-5pmInformation:
