Posted by: Sweet Pea
Spring is almost here, so there is lots to be done in the Hollow! Starting today, February 26, all Fairies can visit Rosetta and pick up her new quest to prepare for spring. The quest will only be available for a week so be sure to get your plant-tastic reward before then!
On March 5, we will be celebrating all things silly in the Hollow with a Comedy Theater set up in Fairy Tale Theater. There will also be a new quest for Members and a useful gift in the Ballroom should the weather in Pixie Hollow take a turn for the worst...
Finally, from March 20 until April 1, we will celebrate the arrival of spring with Minister of Spring visits, our annual golden clover hunt, and new dyes and seasonal badges.
Happy spring!
