This one has a fast turn around so don't miss out! NEXT WEDNESDAY 30th September - Forever Forest Sprites.
Our main theme will be fire lighting and (hopefully) jam making with pre - foraged ingredients.
In this adult forest school session, you are invited to step into a calm, woodland sanctuary where the pace of life gently slows and nature becomes both teacher and companion.
We will welcome you beneath the trees breathing in birdsong, sunlight, and the scent of earth to settle into the space.
The benefits of being outdoors and spending some time away from 'adulting' are well documented and can help you experience real benefits to your mental health. You will be able to choose to engage in laughter, team work and skill learning or enjoy some quiet time in a safe space.
As the group gathers the sessions unfold organically. There will be a theme and activities, which you are invited to engage in. However, you may choose your own path to explore woodwork and whittling, shaping simple tools or decorative pieces from fallen branches. Later, you may decide to wander and discover seasonal foraging, learning to identify some of the edible and dangerous plants on our site, while deepening your understanding of the forest’s rhythms. Conker or other volunteers at your session, will be there to guide you in wherever your passions and whims take you. You may enjoy sitting around the fire circle and conversing with others or lying in our hammock and taking the opportunity to just be present.
As the session draws to a close, we will gather to share stories, insights, and laughter. Friendships form easily here at Forest Sprites, where phones are forgotten and the forest holds space for genuine social connection. Everyone leaves feeling nourished — perhaps by food, by learning or by the rare gift of time spent outdoors with presence.
