What Druids Do

Neopagan Druidry offers a spiritual path in which we balance reverence with mirth and fun. Eight times a year we celebrate the turning of the seasons in solemn, but joyful, rituals that are open to all like-minded folks. In addition to our seasonal rituals, we also promote scholarship and study in the ADF Dedicant, Generalist Study and Initiate Programs. We meet regularly to explore the best of modern archeological, historical, sociological and religious research, and discuss how this information is relevant to our lives today.

Membership in our grove is open to all that are interested in aligning with the cycles of Nature as we grow in knowledge, awareness, and reverence of the Gods, Goddesses, Nature Spirits and the Ancestors. We honor the gods from all European cultures such as (but not limited to) the Celts, Balts, Norse, Roman, Greeks and Iberians.
