Trees, plants, birds and beetles – we all love them and
take them for granted, but are we noticing how they are
slowly vanishing around us?
Join us at The Frogshack Farm to celebrate the function
of the humble tree and remind ourselves of how important green things are…
A practical and thought provoking workshop looking at ways we can
contribute to the future of our landscape - providing health,
