Red Maple Grove, without fail, holds open rituals celebrating the eight standard Neo-Pagan High Holy Days: equinoxes, solstices, plus the four Celtic mid points, Samhain, Imbolc, Bealtine and Lughnasad. Our rituals are open (public). If you’re interested, you’re welcome. Feel free to let us know which times and locations would best enable you to attend future rituals. We are starting to schedule our Imbolc 2026 rituals. We are holding one on on Sunday, Feb 1, 2026 at Minto Park (Elgin and Lewis). And another at Dundonald Park (Somerset and Bay) on Sunday, February 8th at 2 pm. Can’t come to these and you would like to come to a Red Maple Grove Imbolc ritual, you are welcome to suggest where and when, from now until Feb 8th, resonates better with your availability for additional Imbolc 2026 rituals. Red Maple Grove has a Norse/Celtic focus. So, usually our Cross-quarter high days are Norse, while our traditional Celtic mid points are Celtic. We have also held rituals in other cultural styles, including Slavic. A recent High Day ritual (Autumn Equinox on Monday, September 29, 2025) was in Slavic style.
As an ADF grove, we present ADF rituals, the more recent ones following ADF’s current Core Order of Ritual. We have been holding formal rituals since Midsummer 1999. We held an informal one on Bealtine 1999. A formal ADF ritual was conducted in Ottawa at the Spring Equinox in 1999 by Montreal’s Silver Fox Grove. Some of our previous rituals, going back several years, may be seen by clicking at the appropriate ritual link below. At each ritual we take an omen, as per standard ADF practice.

Thrice Three Blessings!
