Great Rabbit of Spring Celebration
5 Consensus Cir
Black Mountain, NC 28711
United States
Come Celebrate Equinox with an Egg Hunt and Potluck at Earthaven Ecovillage (see below for directions)! Bring a dozen or more (SUGAR-LESS) eggs to hide, a basket for each child, and an egg-centric (or spring-themed) dish to share for lunch. Simple treasures (handmade if possible, but not necessary) are preferred for eggs contents, and please no candy. Kids will congregate on the Village Green. Egg Hunt will happen in the vicinity of the Council Hall and/or the Peace Garden. Parents either drop off eggs or join in the hiding of them by 10:30am please. Once all is ready, around 11am, we will have a circle, with dance and song. We will call in the directions and the benevolent spirit of the Great Rabbit of Spring. Then we will parade over to the hunting grounds to search for eggs and a magical altar of the Great Rabbit of Spring. Maybe there will be some equinox storytelling along the way. And then a feast! 🙂
We are so excited to celebrate spring’s arrival with you. I hope many of you are able to come join us.
