Join us this February half-term to get creative and be kind to nature. All materials will be provided for you to craft hearts that will hold a message to be kind to nature.
All of the hearts will be displayed to share a message of kindness and positivity. Other crafts will allow you to create reminders to take home or pass on to people, about the impact of small acts of kindness.
All of the materials we use will be recycled, reusable or sustainably sourced, making sure that our crafting is kind to the planet too.
This event is open to everyone, all ages are welcome to attend.
Join the Forest Education Ranger for a morning tour around Foxburrows Farm. Discover the animals that live here, and help our Farm Rangers to give some of them their breakfast.
Starting before the Farm is open to the public, this tour will teach you about the animals that we have on the farm, including how some can help to manage the forest. There will also be the opportunity to feed some animals (please note that we cannot guarantee feeding specific animals)
The tour will last approximately 50 minutes. The tour will start promptly at 9am
Visiting a farm is an enjoyable experience, but does carries a small risk of catching infection from animals or the environment, Particularly for those who are young, elderly, immunocompromised or pregnant. Health and safety information will be given at the start, and for more information click here.
As it is difficult to stop very young children putting their hands in their mouths after touching the animals, we advise that children under 3 years old do not attend the farm tour.
Promising artist, insecure jester, and wannabe home-maker, are a sisterhood of oddballs.
As their lives are thrown into turmoil, they navigate “adulting” in the face of an engagement, an impossible decision, and the hard reality that while you can choose your friends, you can’t choose your family.
Putting women centre stage, Our Mothers’ Daughters explores both the harsh and the hilarious edges of the female experience.
