Summer Solstice Celebration in Our New Garden!
Join us for the first of several Together Cultural seasonal gatherings in our new planted Garden of Eden 2.0. 
We planted this garden, inspired by our exploration of the heritage of The Kite. The people who settled our neighbourhood moved here from The Fens when they were drained and brought with them an attitude that people were a part of nature. You can learn more about it 
here
. 
And that's why we've been inspired to revitalise the celebrations of the wheel of the year in our own backyard in collaboration with Earth & Mind. 
First up, The Summer Solstice!
About this event
Join us for a joyful gathering rooted in nature as we mark the longest day of the year and the turning of the seasonal wheel in our new garden in the Kite neighbourhood.
We'll connect to the seasons, our heritage, and ourselves through foraging, storytelling and herbal crafts. It's time to reflect on the year so far. Expect a relaxed, welcoming space filled with great company, sensory experiences, and the magic of midsummer.
All ages and experience levels welcome - come as you are to celebrate nature's abundance with us.
All children must be accompanied by adults.
Here's what to expect from the celebration:
Storytelling: The Myth of Dawn and Dusk
A story that reflects the turning point between light and dark, symbolising transition, balance and the cyclical nature of life.
Exploration: A Herbal Foraging Walk
A foraging walk at peak growing season shows plants in abundance, fragrant and full of life. That makes the Summer Solstice the perfect time to celebrate nature's generosity, deepening our connection to our local envionment, and honouring ancient seasonal traditions tied to gathering and abundance.
Play: Sensory Matching Game
Bringing a sense of play to the Summer Solstice, we will play a sensory matching game where we try to match the scent to the herb.
Heritage: Lavendar bag kit / herb drying
In honour of the abundance of midsummer, we'll preserve nature at its peak! This activity will connect us to traditional crafts and the marking of the season, much like our ancestors would have done in this area at this time.
Reflection: A celebration of self. What have you achieved so far this year?
Just as the sun reaches its highest point, we'll pause to acknowledge our own growth, effort and personal harvest. It's a moment to celebrate how far we've come before the darkness returns.
Foraged tea: Lemon balm and elderflower
Both lemon balm and elderflower are delicious options for refreshments at this time and are symbolic to Summer Solstice. Lemon balm is connected to warmth and joy, which elderflower is linked to renewal, protection and the gateway between worlds which is fitting for this seasonal turn as the days begin to shorten.

Boat tour

Having a boat trip in Cambridge can give a good experience of punting on the River Cam and also get lots of interesting stories about each college at the University of Cambridge. However, the cost of it is quite expensive.

Trinity College

苏河家园

Travel into Trinity College, Cambridge, with not only beautiful atriums and fountains, but also ancient libraries. The college, built by King Henry VIII of England, has been through the storm and has become one of the largest, most financially powerful and most reputable colleges in Cambridge University. Its deep academic heritage and remarkable historical status are unique and worth a visit.

Mathematical Bridge

Visit the &quot;Mathematical Bridge&quot; attraction at Cambridge University. The bridge cleverly connects the college buildings on both sides of the Jianhe River, which connects not only the physical bridge of the college, but also the history and modernity, and is worth a visit.

The Corpus Clock

This photo was taken at night, so the clock is a little unclear. However, standing in front of it and watching it ticking forward, I still feel a little nervous. After all, no one can control time.
