In many places, gardens are in full production mode at this time of year. If you’re growing your own garden, don’t forget to give back to the land spirits as you enjoy the fruits of the earth (and your own labor). Whether your harvest is bountiful or slim, you should remember and acknowledge those spirits.

Gather together a selection of your harvest, be it food or herbs, and make a small biodegradable (all-natural) bundle. At the edge of your garden or land, place it carefully, saying:

To the spirits of land, I offer my
gratitude for this harvest. May it
please and nourish you, as it has
nourished me. I honor our connection.
