This is the first two days of preparation and coming together of the Village Builders of Rites of Spring. Open only to people who have attended Rites before.

EarthSpirit and Tamelin Productions invite you to join us for the thirty first annual Rites of Spring, a gathering open to all who celebrate the sacred nature of the Earth.

Saturday September 19th - at the Middlesex Fells Reservation, Fall Harvest Mandala offering. We come together bringing our harvest offerings and together create a mandala of gratitude for the creatures of the land to partake in after we leave. The picture on the home page is of last year's Mandala.

Meet up at South Border Road in Medford. Will truly start at 10AM - so folks are free to do other things in the afternoon. The theme is richness and plenty, and leaving a share of our own abundance behind to feed others. Bring veggies, fruits, herbs, or spices you wish to add to the mandala.

Directions:
From Rt. 93 take exit 33 onto Roosevelt Circle, then go 2/10ths of a mile on South Border Road to gate 5, Bellevue Pond parking area.

Travelling south on Rt. 93 South Border Road is the first road off of the circle. Travelling north on Rt. 93 you get onto the circle after

the Fellsway West enters the exit ramp (and then leaves again), keep going around the rotary, over Rt. 93, past the entrance ramp from the north, the next road is South Border. On a nice day the parking lot fills up fast, best to get there a little early. The mandala site is a moderate uphill walk.
