Harvest Gathering is a 4-day pagan spiritual festival with classes, workshops, merchants/readers, rituals, drum circles, bardic performances, kids' activities, and more! This is a place for pagans, witches, and spiritual folks of all kinds to come together in fellowship and community to learn, meet, camp, celebrate, and explore their spirituality.

This year we celebrate our 20th anniversary! 

We are inviting back many teachers and presenters from the first festival (when it was called Harvest Home Gathering), other presenters include community members and emerging contemporary pagan voices. 

Our speakers include Christopher Penczak, Lilith Dorsey, Deirdre Pulgram Arthen, Andras Corban Arthen, Liz Walker, John M. Boye, Gina Martini, David Shi, and Juniper Talbot. 

We offer weekend passes for adults, teens, and kids, as well as Saturday-Only Passes. 

Sleeping options include free tenting, bunk reservations, and full cabin reservations. 

Camp Cedarcrest has running cold and hot water, bathrooms, and showers on site!

Meal plan options for the weekend or day passes are available to add on to your ticket until August 1st.

Dinner on Thursday evening is FREE to all attendees! 

This is a year to honor our past and embrace the future of paganism with grounding and wisdom. This is a year of mindfulness and healing, growth and discovery, as we all walk together on our sacred journey home. 

Come build community with us, we cannot wait to welcome you home!
