Winter Solstice Lantern Making & Night Walk

Winter Solstice Lantern Making & Night Walk

We will host a family friendly Solstice walk outdoors on the darkest day of the year to celebrate the solstice, community, and our connection to nature’s rhythm.

Gosh, we are so stoked to partner with C5 Studios to host this year’s Winter Solstice Lantern Walk at Blue Heron Farm. Across many cultures and over thousands of years, the Winter Solstice has been a time for people to pause, acknowledge the longest night, and welcome the slow return of light.

Carrying a small piece of that long history into our own valley feels meaningful. We are grateful to share this tradition with our community and to host it here at the farm this year.

C5 Studios will lead a
Lantern Making Workshop
Time: Saturday, December 20th at 10:30 am
Location: at C5
The workshop is eight dollars per person, and participants should bring a clean glass jar with a wide mouth.

Then comes the
Winter Solstice Lantern Walk
Time: Sunday, December 21st at 5:00 pm
Location: Blue Heron Farm

We will gather at the farm for a family friendly lantern walk across the orchard. Together we will welcome the return of longer days, celebrate community, and enjoy the quiet beauty of the season.

Please bundle up and bring the lantern you create.

Reservations are required so we can plan for group size. Space is limited. Please RSVP by emailing erinc5studios@gmail.com.

We look forward to sharing this special evening with you.
