A Time to Plant, a Time to Harvest
It seems like summer just arrived and already it is on its way out. Today is Lughnasadh (Celtic) or Lammas (Germanic), the beginning of the harvest season in Western European tradition and the first day of autumn according to reckonings that count summer as starting from May. Traditionally, it’s a time for working the fields and baking the first bread of the new harvest.
As always we’ve gathered all of our related posts as well as those we found across the internet that we thought you might enjoy. Have fun!
