In September 2009, the Connecticut Wiccan and Pagan Network, Inc. (CWPN) obtained the festival formerly known as Harvest Home Gathering (HHG). It is with great excitement and expectation that the CWPN will be sponsoring this event in September 2010.

Let us now gather together to celebrate and give thanks for the harvest that will sustain us through the dark months ahead. Join us for a gathering celebrating community, family, home and the harvest.

Harvest Gathering is an indoor/outdoor event, which promotes celebration, knowledge, spirituality, enlightenment, family and fellowship. By virtue of its very name, we embrace the collective spirit of our kindred. Together we plant the seeds of our future and together we shall enjoy the fruitful harvest of our collective efforts.

This event is being held on Thursday, September 16 through Sunday, September 19, 2010. Registration hours will be Thursday between 2:00pm and 11:00pm. The Welcoming Dinner will begin on Thursday at 6:00pm. Everyone is welcome to attend the Welcoming Dinner, even if you're not on the meal plan. The Opening Ritual will be held on Thursday at 8:30pm beginning at the Dinning Hall. The Closing Ceremony will begin on Sunday at 12:00pm at the Fire Circle. The venue for this gathering will be located at the Hartford County 4H Camp, 247 South Rd., Marlborough, Connecticut.

You must pre-register to attend this event. Walk-ins are not permitted and we do not offer day passes.

The weekend will consist of approximately 30 classes and workshops with World Renowned Authors, a live concert, a Dance featuring D.J. music, and a Renaissance Feast with bards and wenches. There will also be nightly drumming circles, nightly bonfires and an assortment of vendors! In order to build and maintain "community" we ask that once you arrive on site, you remain until the end of the gathering on Sunday.

The camp is located in scenic Marlborough, CT on 100 acres of land. The camp is adjacent to the Salmon River State Forest with many trails for hiking, meditating and nature observation. The Vending Area is located in the main camp area and there is a fire circle in the woods. Cabin space is limited but there is an unlimited amount of space for tents. There is a separate shower house with facilities next to the cabins. Due to the rough terrain and location of some of the activities, we unfortunately cannot accommodate handicapped or disabled members of our community. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

Harvest Gathering is both honored and privileged to offer a variety of well-known and respected speakers from various disciplines including: Witchcraft, Celtic Studies, Shamanism, Thelemic and Ceremonial Magic, Voodoo, Norse Spirituality and more.
