Join us on our secluded smallholding for a weekend celebration of all things hedge!
Over the course of this relaxed weekend we will do tool sharpening, hedgelaying, make charcoal and faggots, explore the local lanes, spend time by the campfire and share our knowledge on all things hedge. There will only be six places available so it will be a close-knit group with plenty of time allocated for discussion.
The cost includes camping, refreshments and evening pizza (made in our cob bread oven), as well as Sunday breakfast and lunch. All food is gluten-free. We are completely off-grid and have an outdoor kitchen area, compost loo and 12 volt electrics. Please bring a tent, or you can sleep in your vehicle.
The holding boasts some beautiful ancient hedges, a very small woodland, orchard, vegetable area and polytunnel.
