About the event
We started planting our Children's Forest in November 2020 and have nurtured, played in and enjoyed the emerging woodland space with local children and our wider Sawpit Woods community throughout the cycles of the year ever since.
Join us for this community day to wander the land and the woods. Meet some of our native trees & learn about their growth and development. We will share warmth and build our community around a fire and celebrate the middle of winter in the beautiful woods.
£20 per adult, children free. This day is available at a reduced rate thanks to funding awarded to the Children's Forest from 'The People's Projects'. Children's Forests run a variety of nature based courses designed to support reconnection with the land, inspiring a deeper connection to nature, self and others.
