Yarrow Coven
presents our 9th annual
Mabon Festival
2009
September 10-13th
Camp Zoe, Salem MO
Yarrow coven would like to thank you for stopping by and learning more about our Mabon Festival that we host each year to celebrate the 2nd Harvest Festival & Autumn equinox.
Through the years our festival has been held at many locations, our first located in Booneville, MO at Ozark Avalon. Later we moved to a new location in Greenville, MO before finding our home at Camp Zoe. It is here that we find our home away from home among the beautiful canopy of trees along the crystal clear spring fed waters of Sinking Creek. where we are able to walk between the worlds, dance, play, sing, celebrate, work magick and build community all within safe space and with perfect love and trust.
We hope that you find all of these to be true and may you join us on our journey as we celebrate a time of balancing light & darkness, gratitude & thanksgiving, bounty & abundance and community…
