Community coming together

This past weekend was Hickory Nut Forest's Third Annual Apple Festival.  The day was filled with great sweetness and abundance.  Imagine a magestic orchard on a sunny fall day filed with a diversity of people picking apples, pressing cider, and lifting their spirits in celebration.  The abundance not only included the apples as they fell (or in some cases were shaken) from the trees, but also the abundance of shared community, good food, and combined effort.  The sweetness was experienced in the taste of pies, the crispness of the air, and laughter as people connected in new ways.

It was a splendid event, and the kind that Hickory Nut Forest Eco-Community is inspired to support and host.  We look forward to many more events that bring people together to remember the beauty of the natural world, the support of community and how spirit moves us in amazing ways.

Thank you to all who attended, and we look forward to seeing more of you in the future. Videos and photos will be added soon.
