In these pages, we celebrate the tradition of Midsommar in Finland, or Midsummer in English. The essence of this cultural tradition crossed the ocean with our ancestors and continues today in communities of descendants around the world. Whether the festival includes floral crowns, music, dancing, bonfires, and traditional foods, each keeps our unique history alive. Let this issue inspire you and your family to continue the tradition by attending one of the scheduled community celebrations—or teach your grandchild how to make a floral crown, take them berry picking, or try one of the meals.
