To recognize the Vernal Equinox we invite you to join us for a potluck noon meal (1st lunch for us Shire folk) or at 2nd lunch (around 2 sun time) at the Hoyt Farm in Hobbiton. We will be halfway to peak sunshine, so celebrations are in order. Come enjoy mud season in Grafton, NH.

Many of the farmhouse residents will be eating mostly raw food, but you can cook or warm up food that you decide to bring.

We will be celebrating full moons during the warmer months (especially Burning Porcupine during July). The main Shire Solar Celebration will happen near the Summer Solstice.

Oh sure, get us all worked up about seeing PatK, just to dash our hopes (haha actually typed hops there) into the ground.  :'(  ;)

If folks dress in weather/season-appropriate "gear"/ regular cloths for the day (and that won't take much -heck it's almost Spring) we can do a "full "tour" of *everthing*.

In a short (child friendly) 15 minute tour you can see how to "survive" the winter without ever cutting/"taking" a single live tree. And in a longer tour you can see more.
In a 30 minute tour, you can see a few hills.  :D
In 30-45 min. we can see the areas where deer and moose regularly pass.

Trails/(currently paths) around the main perimeter of the Hoyt Farm have been explored,, chartered, and mostly cleared ( ;D trails are subject to change without notice ;D) during the past several months.

The micro-geology gets particularly interesting down around where the "ghosts" of the Hoyt Farm "speak."
