About the Event
No experience necessary - we’ll teach you the ways of the garden, and help you to become the master farmer that you never knew you were. Or maybe you are already an expert! We welcome people of all backgrounds and experience levels at these special events. What you’ll do depends on the exact day. Our staff will welcome, prepare and guide you through your experience. All you have to do is come ready to roll up your sleeves and get your hands dirty, as we joyfully tend to the land together.
