Big changes are happening at Wisteria! We’re collaborating with Appalachian folklorist Byron Ballard to revamp Solstice, bringing together all the old traditions everyone loves with new energy and vision.

To make this happen, we need to let the fields lay fallow for a year. For 2025, we are having a Solstice Community Weekend. Community-driven programming — workshops, performances, shenanigans — is encouraged and welcome! We’ll have a Facebook event up and a whiteboard at the cafe for people to make announcements. We WILL have a Solstice Celebration during this event.

The cafe will be open for essentials. Admission is $25/day, vending is free, pay when you arrive, cash or card. We’ll need a very small pool of work barter staff, applications will be up soon.
