Sustainable Living Skills Day at Brigit’s Garden

Brigit’s Garden invite you to join them for a creative, inspiring and practical day of learning traditional skills with excellent tutors. Come away with a finished product that you made yourself (in most workshops) and the lifelong skills to make more!

There will also be a Forest School-inspired day camp for children to facilitate parents attending workshops.

Choose between full-day workshops in Stone Wall Building or Basket Weaving, and half-day workshops in Herbal Walks and Making Salves & Sprays, Organic Gardening, and Creating with Natural Materials – details below.

For the half-day workshops, you can take two on one topic or mix-and-match between them.

Lunch will include a hearty soup with brown bread, two salads, tea and coffee. Lunch is included in full-day workshops and can be booked separately for half-day workshops.

Kids can be booked in to the Forest-School inspired camp for a half-day or full-day.

Numbers are limited so early booking is advised.
