VENDOR LOCATION - MIDDLE CHILDREN BARNFOLK. Because the Pink Moon is on 4/23 and Beltane is 5/1, we split the difference and went with a big ol' 4/27 Pink Moon Beltane! That means the wispiest pink frock and crown of pink flowers you can find will be the strawberriest. We may or may not have a bad boyfriend bear man effigy like in Midsommar but probably not for legal reasons. Will we have a big ol' pole? We will have a big ol' pole.
