Guests arrive to a long table of small squash, crusty bread and candlelight, with a mug of hot spiced cider. Each one makes a leaf lantern from pressed autumn leaves and a glass jar to light the table and take home. Everyone adds a gathered find to the centerpiece as they sit down to a warm harvest supper. After dark, anyone who likes gathers at the fire pit for s'mores and a story told together one card at a time.
The evening
- The Leaf Lantern TableChoose four or five leaves you love. Brush glue on a small patch of the jar and press a leaf onto it.
- The Gathered CenterpieceEach guest chooses one find from the basket or their own pocket. Say where it came from as you add it to the table.
