    See you in the woods!

    An extraordinary couple of days – so enriching to learn exciting new skills in a completely new way.

    Thank you again  for the lovely basket workshop. It was so relaxed yet focused. Clear instructions with space to crack on and explore, with your supportive skills and knowledge on tap. Richard, London

    Such a holistically structured and enjoyable day of learning in the woods. Soul food.
