Fairy House Event

Pine Banks Park, Sponsored by Councillor Barbara Murphy
We all need a break from technology and a chance to connect with the natural world. Fairy Houses are structures for fairies and nature’s other friends (hobbits, elves, gnomes, trolls) to visit. Sticks, bark, dry grasses, pebbles, shells, feathers, seaweed, pine cones and nuts are just some of the natural materials that can be used. Ranging from simple structures to intricate mansions and villages, these whimsical habitats are built by children, families, gardeners and nature lovers reflecting their creativity, joy and pride.
Join us and build a house at the event or plan ahead and design and pre-build your structure. Individuals and groups of all ages are welcome to enter houses into a contest that will take place that day.
Inspired by Tracy Kane’s award winning Fairy House Series. Visit fairyhouses.com to see beautiful images of fairy houses and learn about the book series.
