Mystery Loves Company Walking Tour

Dates: September 16 & 17

Time:6:30 pm

Place: Downtown Palmer

Cost: $20

Grandmother Raven Productions is pleased to present the first in a cycle of walking tours: Agrarian Rhythms: Seasonal Walking Tours; a series that will explore the rich mythology and local lore tied to the four agricultural seasons. Each tour reflects a seasonal theme and motif:

1. Germination – The Sower

2. Proliferation – The Honeybee

3. Termination – The Reaper

4. Hibernation – The Bear

This September we're presenting the first tour of the series: Termination with the Reaper. This tour delves into the powerful symbolism of the harvest season, when the earth transitions from growth to rest. Drawing inspiration from ancient agricultural myths that illustrate the cycle of life, death, and renewal—the Reaper represents both the end of the growing season and the promise of future abundance.

This tour is a unique blend of fact, fiction, and folklore, weaving together the real events that shaped history with intriguing tales and legends that have captured the imaginations of local residents for decades.

This tour is produced and presented by volunteers. All profits will be split between the Friends of the Palmer Public Library and the Palmer Historical Society.
