Celebrated around the spring equinox, Nowruz heralds the transition from winter to spring in the northern hemisphere.
During the joyous celebration, families gather around the Haft-sin table, decorated with with seven foods and spices which represent renewal and prosperity. Each item begins with the letter ‘s’ and has a unique meaning which combine to create a tapestry of wishes and aspirations for the year ahead. Other items, such as a mirror, goldfish, painted eggs, candles, are frequently added, as they also represent life, love, health, and prosperity.
Join us in the park and follow the trail to find our hidden eggs, whilst learning about the ingredients for the Haft-sin! Each egg represents an item, and can be discovered by following the clues on the trail map, which will be available online and for pickup at Lauderdale House at the end of February. Good luck!
