Caring Fairies return to Mission Viejo’s Oso Creek Trail

Have you heard of the Caring Fairies? These magical beings will return to the region along the Oso Creek Oso Creek Trail on April 28.

The Caring Fairies, who made their debut a couple of years ago on Laguna Niguel's Aliso Summit Trail, were recently spotted flying around and exploring the Oso Creek Trail.

With picturesque oak trees, sycamores, a butterfly garden, mosaics, plant maze and rolling hills, the trail reminds the fairies of their rural homes in Ireland. Last week, Fairy Lily, Queen of The Fairies, left a note at the Potocki Center for the Arts announcing the fairies’ return this month coinciding with Mission Viejo’s Arts Alive & Street Painting Festival April 28-29 from noon to 5 p.m. at the Norman Murray Center and Oso Viejo Park.

About a mile of the Oso Creek Trail will be dotted with fairy homes for the public to visit and enjoy. You can follow the arrival of the new fairy homes through the Mission Viejo Friends of the Arts’ website at www.missionviejoarts.org or Caring Fairies at www.caringfairies.com. The fairies’ arrival will make way for new workshops at the Potocki Center for the Arts by resident “fairyologist” Andres Frank. Space is limited for the workshops catering to kids and adults, so register online today at http://cityofmissionviejo.org/departments/recreation/online-activity-registration.
