Wellness Activities in Gardens

Activities & Faciliation

Gardens, outdoor spaces and nature are in the spotlight for their restorative effects on our health. From vitamin D to making a place look beautiful we get a sense of wellness from fresh air, physical activity, creativity and taking a moment to relax to watch a butterfly. Herb Walks, talks and workshops are available as one offs or part of a facilitated series of events.
