Gather Programming Schedule
Please note the change: No onsite meal plans are available. However, we will be setting up a fully stocked community kitchen where you may prepare your own food. This should reduce the "stuff" you might otherwise need to haul.
The Earth House Midsummer Gathering is where you can have fun with others who share Earth-reverent beliefs. This will be a week of celebration and of sharing, of learning and of honoring one another's unique rituals. Meet new people, learn new ways, and play like pagans!
Reservations are taken on a first come, first served basis.
Payments may be made through PayPal via our email address (on the registration form), or by check/money order.

~~THINGS TO DO!~~
 RITUALS: Naturally, a Midsummer observance, but many other rituals, including a Full-Moon Ritual, the ever-popular Chocolate Ritual - bring an open mind and, of course, some chocolate to share.
 In the past we've had Shamanic journeys, Druidic rites, Nordic and Wiccan rituals. (If you're interested in presenting, we're interested in hosting!)
WORKSHOPS: Ancient Living Skills, Arcane & Modern Arts & Sciences, Fun Family-Friendly Projects, and our own version of Pagan University.
Tentative Schedule!
 VENDORS: Pagan-Folks selling Cool Stuff.
Got some Cool Stuff to sell?
Bring it along! There's no additional fee for merchanting.
SILENT AUCTION: Most of our merchants and many of our participants have donated items for our Silent Auction.
 FUN & FRIVOLITY: The 8th Annual Pot Luck Barbarian Feast, the Annual Harry Potter Party, Bonfires, Drumming and Staving, Chanting and Singing! We have some family-friendly activities planned! And you never know where or when Bill the Cat will make an appearance.
