Engage in our workshop series. Go on a ramble to find edible weeds, learn how to make your own fermented drinks and kraut, whip up some natural cleaning products or discover healing herbs and how to make tisanes and tinctures. Join us for forest bathing, bird watching, worm cultivation and even movies under the stars.
