the Halfling Harvest Gathering

Welcome to the second annual Halfling Harvest Gathering! Come celebrate the season with food, fun, and friendship at this harvest festival inspired by Tolkien's stories of Hobbits and the Shire.

Step off the well-worn path and into a world of rolling hills, laughter, and second helpings.

Welcome to The Halfling Harvest Gathering, an afternoon party inspired by stories of Hobbits and Shire-folk from Tolkien's works, where we celebrate cozy company, rustic fare, and all all manner of good cheer. Don your halfing finest and join us for this family friendly party in the heart of the Shire.

Whether you’ve come for the pies, the lively music, the cheerful games, or simply a day to savor the slower things of life, you'll find yourself most welcome.

✨ Expect:

Live music

Old-world games

Good food

Enjoy playing games, dancing to live music, joining in with the Maypole, or simply leaning back and sipping tea on a nice afternoon in the Shire.

Vendors will be present, bringing various foods, teas, and craft items that one might find at a hobbit celebration

Dancing ends the day with beginner friendly group dancing to live music that will get you dancing (or at least tapping your toes) to make you feel like you too are at Bilbo Baggin's 111st birthday!

So come along, don’t be shy — there’s always room for one more on the green. After all, it’s no bad thing to celebrate a simple life with good friends, good food, and a song in your heart.

Required:
