Dear friends,
August invites us to celebrate Žolinės, the Lithuanian Feast of the Assumption and a time when nature's gifts reach their fullness and our hearts turn to gratitude. Join us for a warm summer gathering where Lithuanian traditions, the living forest and the joy of community come together.
🌿 What will you experience?
- • Gathering and learning about wild herbs
- • Singing sutartinės, traditional Lithuanian multipart songs, and an evening fire
- • Quiet mornings, hikes and herbal teas
