TOLKIEN TIDINGS APRIL 5TH, 2023 EDITION

Spring has returned to the Shire!

How are you celebrating this season?

In the spirit of Tolkien, we do suggest getting out to enjoy gardens and nature. Maybe have a little bit of an adventure.

If it's raining where you are (or you just feel like staying in), though, we've got some Tolkien-y things to explore from the comfort of your own home.
