Lughnasadh, Lamma, Lunasda – Celebrate the Beginning of the Harvest with the Pooka Pages!

In the Northern Hemisphere, the first grains and fruits are being harvested and it is a time of celebration. Today’s county fairs harken back to these olden celebrations. Mother Earth is giving birth to the first fruits of her labor and it is time to celebrate!
The Lughnasadh issue of the Pooka Pages is ready. There are lots of wonderful stories, crafts, recipes and ideas to share with your young ones to learn about and celebrate this season.
