Rain Date
This will be an all weather event . The only reason we would cancel is if the weather is extremely severe or like the parking fields are snow covered but our blizzard wizard is on retainer to prevent this.
Refunds
All ticket sales are final. No refunds will be issued or transfers honored for other events unless we cancel or reschedule.
Day-of Tickets
Will be available at the gate for $20.
No Furry Friends Please
Pets other than service animals are prohibited. You may have seen people bring pets. Those people might not have seen the FAQs on the website or this part of the ticket, or the posts about it, or may be ignoring all of these. But please, out of respect to the venue, and non-pet people, and our insurance policy, please leave your furry friends at home. You will be turned away if you have a non-service animal pet with you.
Photos
You might have your picture taken and we might post it on our socials. If that’s a problem, tell someone.
Covid Stuff
Mask mandates are rapidly changing and we are a compassionate crowd! Please bring one, and wear one when appropriate or asked. We will comply with all mandates as they roll out closer to the event date and ask for your cooperation and empathy.
Additionally, exposure to COVID-19 is an inherent risk in any public location where people are present; we cannot guarantee you will not be exposed during your visit. The CDC advises that older adults and people of any age who have serious underlying medical conditions might be at higher risk for severe illness from Coronavirus. Attendees should evaluate their own risk in determining whether to attend. Don’t come if you’re sick, showing symptoms, or generally cantankerous. People who show no symptoms can spread Coronavirus if they are infected, any interaction with the general public poses an elevated risk of being exposed to Coronavirus. By coming to Lunar Faire, you acknowledge and agree that you assume these inherent risks associated with attendance.

April 2025 Herbal Tea Tasting: RED RASPBERRY LEAF
2025-04-26 13:00 - 14:00 | Hamilton Township Public Library, 1 Justice Samuel A Alito Jr Way, Hamilton, NJ, 08619, United States
Welcome to the April 2025 Herbal Tea Tasting
Join us for a one hour herbal tea tasting experience. We will begin by learning to identify the plant, then discuss where, how, and with whom it lives in nature. You’ll learn the different types of medicinal properties, then we’ll brew some for tea tasting. We’ll explore the lore and magic this herb can bring to your life, both in teas and food.
You may wish to bring a journal to write your tasting notes and create drawings (if art is your thing).
Because this month’s plant is RED RASPBERRY LEAF and we’re in the throws of spring, we are also going to learn why it is, and has been an important plant for midwives and those who need ongoing kidney support.
To demonstrate this, we’ll also show you how to make your very own raspberry oxymel. In fact, we’ll be giving you a recipe card so you can make your own!
✨ 📔 ✨ Every participant will have the opportunity to purchase an Herbal Tea Tasting Journal. ✨ 📔 ✨
This event is being hosted by the Central Jersey Chapter of Herbalists Without BordersTM (CJHWB).
The event is FREE – Donations will be accepted at the event – cash or credit card. All donations are tax-deductible.
