Puck. How now, spirit! whither wander you?

Fairy. Over hill, over dale,
Thorough bush, thorough brier,
Over park, over pale,
Thorough flood, thorough fire,
I do wander everywhere,
Swifter than the moon's sphere;
And I serve the fairy queen,
To dew her orbs upon the green.
The cowslips tall her pensioners be:
In their gold coats spots you see;
Those be rubies, fairy favours,
In those freckles live their savours:
I must go seek some dewdrops here
And hang a pearl in every cowslip's ear.
Farewell, thou lob of spirits; I'll be gone:
Our queen and all our elves come here anon.

A Midsummer Night's Dream, Shakespeare

 

This bright bar celebrates the Summer Solstice, and we here at Solstice Herb Farm have a quite a particular affection for this day! :) 

 

The Summer Solstice is celebrated on/about June 21, and recognizes the longest day of the year, after which the daylight hours slowly shrink until the Winter Solstice in mid-December.   The Summer Solstice is also known as Midsummer and on Midsummer's Eve, the fairies are said to dance freely under the moonlight.  Folklore tells us that fairies and other spirits abound on this night, a belief so widely held that it inspired Shakespeare to write an entire play about it. Our ancestors regarded Midsummer’s Eve as a time of intense magick, and any herbs gathered at midnight on Midsummer’s Eve were believed to have unparalleled potency. This is the very reason we chose Solstice as our business name! 

 

Our Midsummer Magick bar is an ode to the summer sun as it rises on the Summer Solstice. Top notes of a sunny citrus trio of grapefruit, orange & petitgrain bring bright vibes like rays of sunlight inviting you to bask in their warmth. Delicate notes of cotton blossom, sweet coconut and flirty musk envelope you like a summer breeze.  Radiant and warm!
