Happy May Day!

What
an amazing Beltane! I hope you all enjoyed the transition into high
spring this weekend. May marks the peak of my favorite time of year.
The sunshine; the flowers; the garden; the wild foods; the potential.

We
spend every May Day in Minneapolis St Paul where we exhibit at the
Living Green Expo. The event is always a successful (and fun) show and
it aligns with the May Day parade each year. Bonus.

In the Cities May Day is
a community event that is imagined, created, and performed by an
amazing group of people from all walks of life. It is a beautiful
reminder of what we can do when we combine our creativity, focus, and
joy.

And you know me. I couldn't help but stalk the babywearers in the
parade. How rad is this mama? A homemade leafy green wrap to carry her
wee flower bud in. * Love. *

And inspiring weekend to be sure. Happy Beltane to all.

Liz —
Try making a wishlist somewhere mainstream, like Amazon, where you can
pull quality natural toys from all kinds of websites. That's what I did
for Christmas last year and it worked nicely for extended family. 🙂

    I wondered if you were going to that parade! 🙂 Great shots. I also always have to get a visit to Wonderment in while we are there…

    Denise,
    You are the second person to mention the store. I had not heard of it before. I did meet one of their toymakers at Living Green and that was enough to peak my interest.

    We missed the parade (though it’s in our neck of the woods), so it’s great to see these photos.

    Our kids love Wonderment, too.

    I’m glad you had a great time in the Twin Cities. It was good to meet you in person @ the expo.

    So great! I was happy to see her among the sea of wagons and strollers. Send her over to see her pic. I have lots more if she wants me to email them to her. (She stood and chatted with our neighbor for a bit while I snapped away.)

    Great to see you this weekend!
    Rachel

    It is a wonderful store. They have a few locations now, but Linden Hills spot is my favorite – it is a lovely neighborhood, and we can also visit the local bakery, coop and park as we stroll.
