2026 Ostara

WiCoM Ostara Ritual Celebration

March in Minnesota… we know not to trust it. The robins show up and a few days later the forecast says a foot of snow. Our eyes are hungry for the sight of green leaves.

The gardeners among us know that it’s not time to plant yet – but it’s time to plan. It’s time to decide what we want to harvest later on, and get ready to plant the seeds of that crop.

 In this ritual, we will dig into our late-March impatience to discover what work we need to start this spring to harvest what we hope for this fall.
