do you know anything about the event called Michigan Framily Reunion that happens annually on the land? is it basically the surviving offshoot of the womyn's fest? like the same event but less popular and with a different name or what? thank you in advance
Hi! MFR is an event that has herstorically occured in Michigan near-ish the land of Michfest, but not on the same land. It is my understanding that this is because the Land was not immediately available for use to host events post-Michfest. I believe that was due to the process of working out who would be purchasing it, and then that group, WWTLC, figuring out the structure/process for how events would be hosted.
MFR is not occurring in 2024 but is supposed to occur in 2025. The MFR land, which is a pine tree farm, will have a few camping weekends this year (with no programming) just for sisters to gather. I have not attended and have heard mixed things about it. I would definitely categorize it as one of the acorn fests - meaning, an offshoot of Michfest, where the metaphor is MWMF as an oak tree.
If you are looking to go Michigan this summer, the Land that Michfest was most recently held on (carveout cuz Michfest had a different location originally) will have three event weeks this summer. More info on wwtlc.org 🌿🌿🌿
