Feast of Pomona August 13th

Pomona was the Roman goddess of fruitful abundance. "Pomona was the goddess of fruit trees, gardens, and orchards. Unlike many other Roman goddesses and gods, she does not have a Greek counterpart, though she is commonly associated with Demeter. She watches over and protects fruit trees and cares for their cultivation. She was not actually associated with the harvest of fruits itself, but with the flourishing of the fruit trees. In artistic depictions she is generally shown with a platter of fruit or a cornucopia." You can read more stories in Ovid.

Dinosaurs and Barbarians: It was the end of Summer in Rome, harvest festival, but this one centers on apples. I like the links to nature, the mythology that connected to nature.
