​​​What an incredible Summer Solstice we are having here at Meadow Sweet Grove! Bright, beautiful sun, strong warm breezes - perfect for drying laundry and . . .  the magical appearance of a fairy ring in the garden!  This is a really grand compliment as fairy rings (rings of mushrooms) only appear in places that the fairies themselves have chosen as a desirable place for their evening revels and dancing.  In fact, the little toadstools are evidence that a merry dance has already taken place.  For wherever the fairies dance; the mushrooms are said to appear.  

The fairy ring marks a special, distinct space from the human world.  It is often seen as a gateway to fairyland or another dimension where the fairies will keep you for a year and a day.  We can't usually see what (or who) is inside the fairy circle ... when we look in from the outside.  And if a fey beckons us to join in the dance - do we dare go in?

Disclaimer: Many of the items sold are vintage or pre-loved. Quality of vintage items vary with the manufacturing methods available at the time of production. They are not made to current standards of manufacturing ... and in my opinion, that is usually a good thing! They tend to be higher quality, last longer and include more attention to detail than today's products. However, safety standards do change over time, items do deteriorate with age, and it is up to the customer to decide how they will use each product.
