Learning to Scythe with Steve Tomlin

Friday, September 1st 2023

Sunday 10th September 9.30am - 5.00pm

We're just one week away from hosting scythe tutor Steve Tomlin's course on learning to scythe. We've started to use scythes here at Foxglove Covert with fantastic results - managing grassland, bracken, brambles and reeds in a much more environmentally sensitive way.

There are still places available for this one day course - you can find more details at www.stevetomlincrafts.co.uk/learn-to-scythe

Winter Worky Day

Sunday 10th December 2023 | 10.00am - 3.00pm

PLEASE NOTE, THE FIELD CENTRE DRAINAGE IS BLOCKED. TOILET ACCESS AND WATER USAGE WILL BE LIMITED DURING THE WORKY DAY.

Join our staff and volunteers for a fun day of practical habitat management. Will be coppicing willow, burning the cut material on a bonfire (a great way to dry out and keep warm!) Please bring along a packed lunch, come ready for all weather conditions and bring your oldest outdoor clothes as tasks will be mucky. Booking is essential for this FREE event.
