Execution

Come here dear,
  Response
What are you doing mommy?
 
I am giving back to the land, dear.
  Response
Why?
 
Well, dear. We had a very good harvest this season, and to show the spirits of the land some gratitude we give something of this harvest back.
  Response
But, daddy says that those spirits do not exist.
 
Your father is a wise man, and I know that this is a very old tradition. But it never hurt us by not doing it, dear.
  Response
But, mommy. What will daddy say when he sees you doing this?
 
Your father knows what I am doing, dear. But now let me teach you what you need to do, because it falls to you to do this when you are grown up.
  Response
Yes, mommy
 
Alright, you take something from the harvest, I usually take a cup of milk from one of the cows. Go to the nearest tree, and pour the milk on the roots. Like this.
  Response
And that is it?
 
That is it,
 

Components and Tools

There is not much needed to preform this ritual, just a simple cup of milk will do. But it needs to be done regularly, after every harvest, or hunt. To keep the spirits of the land satisfied. Otherwise, the spirits might turn your luck into a disaster.
