Festival of Lugh, harvest and of bread

Although most of the grain above is wheat, there is also rye in the bread, and the harvest around here is also of barley and oats.

This link goes to a couple of versions of the John Barleycorn song ...

'though personally I prefer the version that asserts that "the hunt sabs they can't fox the hunt without John Barleycorn"

Wassail!
