Η καρδιά του Θεσπιαί (The Heart of Thespiai) is my project to build a acred garden to Eros. I'm a Hellenic polytheist living in Lansing, Michigan, and dedicated to the god Eros. Gardening has been a hobby of mine since I was a small child, and so now having a house with a arge back garden, this is a project that makes perfect sense. I've been dedicated to Eros for the last five years, and consider the renewal of His cult a major religious focus.
Though good gardens are seldom truly "finished" (I believe that good gardeners are constantly adding and revising), when this reaches a comfortable point, the garden will be open to local and travelling polytheists to worship Eros. The garden will be open publicly at the annual Feast of Eros, as per the New Boeotian Calendar (usually early April), and will be considered "closed" shortly before the first frost.
I need money primarily for plants, seeds, trees, trellises, pond supplies, ornaments, chimes, a fire pit, garden seating, paint, fencing, stepping stones, and tools that I do not yet have.
Spread the word! If you are local to me, feel free to donate tools, low fencing, and anything else. In April or May, I will be having a sale of old things to help raise money for the garden, so feel free to donate things I can sell, as well.
