Zoom (organised by Creswell Crags)
Whether midsummer is an ancient festival or not, people have been celebrating it in Britain since at least the late 14th century.
It's a time of divination for the remainder of the year, summer parades and bonfires, casting spells, and community celebrations. This talk will explore the plants associated with Midsummer, the long-running link with fire, and the magic most often discussed at this time of year - including love magic!
Icy Sedgwick is the host of the Fabulous Folklore podcast, investigating European folklore and its appearances in popular culture. In case she tires of research, Icy also writes dark fantasy and Gothic horror fiction.

It's the feel-good fab summer fiver fest!
Spend a fiver and grab a bargain by supporting a local shop.
There will be lots of amazing £5 summer offers in Bolsover's lovely independent shops and businesses.
Did you know, if every adult in Bolsover spent just £5 per week in their local independent stores and businesses it would mean £2.3 million per year going directly into our local economy.
