While out wandering one fine day I met a little Green Fairy dancing all alone in the forest.

Upon seeing me the little fairy politely bowed, curtsied, giggled and twirled.

As I stepped closer she paused and smiled sweetly,

Then snapped her fingers and fled.

Happy Glorious New Year from the Home Place Fairies!

Happy New Year From the Fairies!

May it be Gentle and Kind.

Happy New Year from Old Horse and the Seamstress to the Fairies!

Happy New Year from the Home Place Fairies!

Very unusual weather this winter with much warmer temperatures than we normally experience. No snow anywhere when a few days ago everything was covered in white. Several days ago I met a night crawler wiggling slowly but with determination across the semi solid ground…from where did he come and where was he intending to go? He could not say so I scooped him up and carefully brought him down into the pit greenhouse where the ground never freezes and greenery all winter grows.

Today the granddaughters and cousins found a frog! Now that was a surprise, groggy but sitting upon solid ground in a clump of withered leaves.

Later when I hiked  down to the waterfalls I was not too surprised to see that the Home Place Fairies had left their cozy winter quarters to flutter and  dance in the warmth of a late December Day. This is highly unusual for them to do this time of the year. To my knowledge this has only happened a few times ever before.

The forest bordering my farm is enchanted and deep within in very secret places there are two sacred waterfalls where fairies fly.

For believers anything is possible.

Dream

Adventure out into nature.

The possibilities are endless.

Two little Fairies left the forest with their wands hoping to meet and wondered

As they wandered …

How simply wander-fully wonderful wandering with wands can be!

On the north side of a small mountain not far from the sea sits a fine little farmhouse as happy as can be.

Surrounded by meadows of hay, orchards of fruit, gardens of flowers, vegetables and herbs.

Old Horse is Guardian of the Home Place Fairy Folk who reside in the Enchanted Forest that borders this farm.

Our Foxy Friend and Fairy Companion, Caspian rests at the edge of the Enchanted Forrest as he contemplates the events of his day.

Fairy Lee checks that the greenhouse has been properly dusted with just the right amount of fairy dust as day begins to slip into dusk.

She double checks that all of the Toadstools have been sprinkled with precisely the correct amount of magical dust in preparation for the Cricket Band who will perform their symphony while standing upon them beginning at dawn.

The very first evening of each October, right at dusk the Fairies will venture from the hills where the little farmhouse rests and fly to the shore where they will sing goodbye for the season to their Selkie cousins who spend their winters further out at sea.

Later the the fairies will return to the meadow here at the farm and dance in the twilight of autumns cooling moon.

Magic happens in every garden.
