SARATOGA SPRINGS — Students, friends, and family members danced around a maypole as live music played during the Waldorf School’s Spring Faire on May 3.
Children enjoyed natural crafts such as botanical silk dying, wool felting, and making flower crowns. The outdoor pizza oven churned out slices while goats, rabbits, and even a dove (named Igor) made appearances. The event also featured The Rolling Pebbles (a youth folk band with two Waldorf students as members), a marionette show, and contra dancing.
