We sell beautiful Swedish handcrafts and gifts, delicious "bullar" (buns) from Crown Bakery, the renowned Swedish bakery in Worcester, and other yummy food and drink. Most importantly we also host a Swedish Sankta Lucia procession with Swedish singing and the St Lucia "bride of light". The procession starts at 12 noon, and it's very popular so come early for good seats and treats!
See below for my shaky film from a good five years ago when my children were in the procession. Isn't it the sweetest St Lucia procession? Very pretty and unpretentious and the children are a delight. (Technically it is held on the wrong day, St. Lucia is on 12/13 in Sweden but who cares?) The procession ushers in the light and the beginning of the Christmas season. Look for me by the jul karamellor! I hope that you can make it on the 30th! And if you are interested in Scandinavian culture and heritage the lodge is looking for new members and would love to meet you. Välkommnen!
