This is a fun activity in Mitcham, London
Fridays are made for slowing down a little, and I’d love for you to join me for something a bit different. Foraging Fridays: A Seasonal Creative Open-Workshop is about stepping away from the week’s busyness and letting nature guide our creations.
When the weather is kind, we’ll take a gentle walk on the common to see what the season has to offer, gathering fruits, flowers, vines, and foliage. Whatever we find, we’ll bring it back to the workshop and see where it takes us. If you’d rather skip the walk, or can't get here in time, you’re welcome to meet us at 6:30 back at the workshop...I’ll make sure there’s plenty of goodies gathered for you too.
From 6:30 back at the workshop, the evening flows quite loosely where each group can choose your own creative path. From simmering jam to preserving pickles, or botanical printing to wreath-making...all things are possible.
At the end of the evening and if the weather is kind), you are welcome to gather round the fire pit to round off the relaxing evening.
If you’d like to get a feel for the kinds of projects we might make, have a peek at my other workshop listings — you’ll see how varied and seasonal they are. Each week brings something new.
Mostly, I hope this gives you a little space to pause, make with your hands, and enjoy being part of a creative gathering.
Refreshments and some light nibbles will be available throughout.
A quick note: Our home is shared with two friendly (and sometimes diva-like) dogs. They’ll happily join us on the forage and then potter about while we’re in the workshop. They’re likely to get a bit bored once we’re busy making, but if you sit by the fire pit later, you might just find one climbs into your lap for a cuddle.
