At this time of year, the countryside comes alive with spring flowers and foliage. During the event you will get to grips with some common species like Nettle and Dandelion, but also a range of plants that you may never have used before. You will be able to try some plants (should you wish) - you can literally graze on some wonderful wild plants as we walk through the estate.

She is enthusiastic about adapting to seasonal nuances – every batch needs an individual approach. Patience and tenacity are required to make sure that the cheeses mature happily and successfully. These are life-long skills that Carrie started to explore as a youngster experimenting with cheese-making on the family farm, and more recently during three years working at a small French farm fromagerie in the heart of the Auvergne.

Children's Doodle and Drawing Workshop with David Setter

David is an illustrator, doodler, designer, metal worker and painter. He is also an excellent workshop leader.

Learn new ways to draw, discover new skills, and gain confidence in your art skills with David Setter. This workshop is guaranteed to be fun, and you will leave with a new found appreciation of drawing and lots of new skills.


David will then work with you pull and stretch that first drawing like putty, to achieve different outcomes. Through a series of fun exercises such as drawing with eyes closed, continuous line and speed drawing against the clock, you will discover new ways to draw.

Parents and guardians are encouraged to join in (please book tickets for all those taking part). You are also welcome to attend and watch on.

Suitable for ages 8 and up. If your child is younger but you think they would be capable, this is up to you! All parents and guardians must say with their children and in the Walled Garden during the class (there is seating, wifi, tea and coffee)

Lunch included for ticket holders.

£40 PER PERSON
