What we offer...
Sowing and Growing for the future.
You and your child will have the opportunity to plant a range of plants and flowers that will help the Eco system around us. This will include:
Bee bombing
- planting a special selection of wild flowers to attract bees at different times of the year.
Butterfly attraction

Composting!
Teach your child all about composting and how important it can be for waste reduction and environmental issues. We will teach your child about the importance of waste management and how littering affects our beautiful countryside.
Waste reduction and recycling are very important for future generations and we aim to turn your little ones into future Eco-warriors!!!
We could even build a wormery to show your little warriors how its all done naturally.
Budding scientists!
So get your wellies out and come and see what we have to offer.
