Easter painting and planting family workshop

Join us for a family workshop session to discover and paint the flowers and vegetables that grow in Spring.

This family workshop will start with a short walking tour to see some Spring flowers and the delights that are growing in our kitchen garden. Learn about pollinators on the way to our classroom where you will paint your own design onto bamboo plant pots, get hands on with some seed sowing and learn how to recycle newspaper into plant pots! Take all your creations home with you to enjoy this summer.
