Mudder’s Day: a celebration honoring local plants, earth, and mothersis a new make-our-own-festival on Mother’s Day in Halifax. This year it be will on May 11th in the Halifax Central Common, beside the playground, on top of (the culverted) Freshwater Brook.
The intention of the festival is to strengthen our social fabric, show everyone (including ourselves) that the paradigm shift is happening, support the rooted ones, honor Mother Earth, honor our cultural heritages, and have a good laugh.
