The Seattle Wassail has become a tradition among the Morris Dancers of the region. Local sides and visitors from around the Pacific Northwest join us each year to Wassail the apple trees in Seattle, including Meridian Park in Wallingford and occasionally Piper's Orchard in Carkeek park. We are partial to our Cider so it's important for us to take care of the fruit trees, ensuring they will bear fruit for the coming year and, of course, next year's Cider harvests!
