Welcome to the season of Advent – A quiet and contemplative time of year, where the nights draw in and we prepare for the joy of Christmas.

What is Advent?

Historically, the season of Advent is similar to the season of Lent, a time of restraint, contemplation, fasting and prayer. Both seasons fit with a time of reduced food production for those of us growing food naturally. Therefore, a good time to ‘slim down’ and conserve energy before the celebrations to come. Advent has four Sundays, leading up to Christmas, where we continue to pray for peace, sing our favourite hymns which look to the coming of the Christ-child and Messiah. It is a very beautiful time in nature, and spiritually.
