* NO DOGS! ??.. Please leave them at home! We love dogs .. and there are a few that live here. However we don’t love having to corral a dog pack away from humans or break up fights ☹️

Or clean up poop from the meadow, hopefully before someone steps in it ?

✨✨✨The House is a private residence and as such will be off-limits - please explain this to and watch your children so the residents don’t have to deal with removing an unsupervised tribe of littles from their bedroom/closet/ and/or scrub mud out of the carpets .. etc.. please and thank you!!

* Flowers??? - For decorating altars, head wreaths, Yoni wreath and Maypole ( Lots and lots of flowers ?⚘️?????
