“I knew unicorns and fairies were real!” a 5-year-old girl shrieked to her mother at the first Ohio Fairy Gardening Festival in Perry, Ohio. For some, what stood before her was a majestic unicorn. Others saw a miniature horse with a dyed rainbow mane and a horn strapped firmly on its head. ?To embrace this festival, you must promise to use your imagination. Think tiny doors made for fairies placed in unexpected scenarios, fairy figures on miniature rope swings, gnomes on beaches. If you look closely enough, you might notice fairies adorning stoops and lawns in your neighborhood. Like many niche hobbyists, #fairygardeners flock to Facebook groups to share their latest creations. That’s how Julie Cole, 62, the festival’s founder, got her start. She has made some close friends from the online group, including the artist Rachel Keith, pictured here, whose work transforms tree stumps into fairy playgrounds. The festival grew out of her desire to meet the communities of fairy gardeners Julie oversaw on Facebook. “I have people coming into the groups from Dubai, South Africa,” she said. “They’re from all over the world.” Swipe left, then visit the link in our profile to read the full story and see more photos of #fairygardens and their gardeners, by @amylombard.
