May Day 2016

Today is May Day!

 

May Day has ancient roots around the globe to welcome spring with all kinds of joyous re-birthing festivals. Today, on the first day of May, we give thanks for (and celebrate the miracle of) all the new life blooming and sprouting up all around us. Winter is now behind us, the Earth is awakening, soils warming, and our daylight-filled hours are increasing to support plant growth.

This holiday has been celebrated in many cultures since Medieval times. For the Romans, May Day was a celebration of Flora, the goddess of wildflowers. In Roman, Greek, and for European cultures it marked the return of spring and was celebrated by gathering wildflowers, decorating a May Pole, and weaving ribbons around it as they danced and sang.  These celebrations were intended to honor the Earth and the fertility of nature.

This day was made by our very loving Creator; let us rejoice and be glad in it! Let's love each other even more today. Happy Sunday..and happy May Day! See you for tea at the farm soon.

With love from your Light of Day Farm Family~                      (Angela, Kelsey, Katherine, Tami, Leland, Kristen, Elaine)

Blender's Notes: Just like its name..very lemon-"y" and ginger-"y". Dark liquor from the roasted chicory root (we grow and roast right here). This is what I blended up and used often while pregnant for morning sickness and the choice of many suffering from nausea after chemotherapy or during the flu. This is an excellent choice hot or iced. Chakra #3 of our Chakra collection to address Solar Plexus-area issues. Naturally caffeine-free.
