Program
2026 Midsummer program
Join us this June as we gather once again to welcome the summer solstice – where nature sets the rhythm and community brings it to life. The 2026 Midsummer Festival is an invitation to slow down, step outside, and share in the quiet magic of long days and lingering light.
From peaceful moments by the water to the steady pulse of drums and laughter rising around the fire, Midsummer Fest celebrates connection in its simplest form. Come to unwind, to share stories and songs, and to feel the warmth of belonging beneath open skies. Whether you arrive for reflection, revelry, or something in between, this is a place to be fully present – together.

somatic witchcraft
Sonia
Somatic Witchcraft blends body-based healing with intuitive and ritual practices. Rooted in nervous system awareness, breathwork, and embodied wisdom, this work invites people to reconnect with their intuition, release stored trauma, and access their natural magic. Through somatic practices, ritual, and energetic awareness, Sonia will guide others back into their bodies where healing, clarity, and personal power live. This path honors the body as an oracle and transformation as an embodied experience.
Psychic Development Part 1
Kati
Psychic Development is a two-part workshop series designed to gently open and strengthen your intuitive gifts in a safe, grounded, and supportive environment. Part One lays the foundation — exploring the nature of psychic phenomena, learning to work with white light for protection, and discovering the rich landscape of divination practices available to you.
Make Your own blend
Kimi

the fourth female: Naming a modern feminine stage
Willow
The traditional feminine life path—maiden, mother, crone—no longer reflects the lived reality of many contemporary women. Longer life spans, diverse career paths, and shifting definitions of care and contribution have created a powerful, yet largely unnamed, stage of development, practice, and participation.
This fireside chat between Rachel Norman and Jaye Willow Marsh introduces the Fourth Female: a mature life stage that exists between motherhood and elderhood.
Ritual Construction Part 1
Janice
Part One is an immersive seminar on crafting ritual from the ground up. We’ll examine every pivotal question—why ritual matters, what shapes it, and how time and place influence its impact. Participants will then collaborate in small groups to create individual components of a ritual, each contributing to a shared theme, culminating in a powerful exercise in collective creation.

Shaping salix: weaving the willow woman of summer
Hajni
Help breathe life into Salix Sally, the willow spirit of summer, as we awaken her from her winter slumber and begin to shape her sacred form. With hands and hearts, we’ll gather natural materials—branches, bark, and vine—to weave her body anew. We will cleanse her with floral water, calling in the vibrant energies of the season. Come co-create this living effigy of joy, fertility, and summer’s wild magic in an act of community, creativity, and intention.
Yoga Nidra: a midsummer guided relaxation practice
Celeste Rose
This session will guide participants through Yoga Nidra, a traditional yogic sleep meditation practice designed to bring the body into deep rest while maintaining awareness.
This practice is rooted in yogic tradition (Yoga Nidra) and is highly effective for reducing stress, supporting healing, and restoring energy.
Participants will leave feeling deeply relaxed and with tools they can use for rest, sleep, and emotional balance.

whispers & stories
Tucked away from the festival’s wildest rhythms, The Ember Hearth offers a quieter fire for those who seek connection through story, song, and thoughtful conversation. Come sit beneath the stars, share tales of tunes, or simply listen as the flames dance and voices weave gentle magic. This is a space for kindred spirits, soft laughter, and the warmth of words.
fire & drumming
Featuring The PATAKIN Drum Group and our resident community drummers
As night falls, gather with us around the sacred fire—the heart of our festival and a beacon for joy, rhythm, and connection. All are welcome to drum and dance and share in the magic of community beneath the stars.
Whether you’re meeting old friends or kindling new bonds, this is a space to let your spirit move and your heartbeat sync with the rhythm of the circle. Stay for a moment or until the sun rises—this fire will burn through the night, fed by laughter, music, and wild, sacred joy.
Bring your drum, your voice, your feet—or simply your presence.
