simple ideas

• serve a family feast with a focus on the fruits of the field … fresh crusty bread, tomato with olive oil and herbs, roasted vegetables, grilled eggplant, etc. followed by a wonderful fruit salad
• have everyone spend the week before Lammas writing things they are thankful for on slips of paper and placing them in a jar – take turns reading these aloud (without identifying the author) during your feast
• hang some bird feeders in your yard saying words along the lines of:

An offering for

my friends of the field

I share with you

the harvest’s yield

• if you are a solitary sit within sacred space and list all the blessings this past season has brought you (your personal harvest), thank the Gods you commune with aloud for each one in turn
