Winter is also a time to reflect on the past year and make plans for the following growing season. This is an exciting time to order seeds, plan what will grow in each bed and organise our programme of workshops where people can come to the farm and learn how to grow their own veg.

Garden Workshops 2024

Throughout 2024, we are running workshops to teach and guide you in creating your own organic garden. All the workshops can be purchased separately or together as a package. These interactive sessions will be run by our Head Gardener Emma and are designed to empower both beginners and seasoned gardeners with sustainable and organic gardening techniques. Whether it's understanding soil health, mastering composting, or learning the art of seed saving, Emma and the team will be sharing their knowledge and passion. Join us for an organic future!
