What a brilliant day on our third Friday on Farm with our amazing project collaborators. We started with delicious scones made by Rena followed by meditation and reflection in the forest.
Then we made mini meadows from recycled paper, soil and organic meadow seed. After that Lisa went through the joys and challenges of being a beekeeper. Sad news today that one hive didn’t survive the very wet winter… a stark reminder of the importance of Farming for Nature and ensuring that pollinators have enough food and wild spaces to survive.
Mona made a delicious bake with chard from the garden and salads (grown by the group) with gorgeous porridge bread made by Caroline AND delicious cake by Aine! We were really inspired by our events last week with Jennie (High Luncheonette) and Lily and the importance of hospitality and food.
We prepared and set the bean bed in the glorious sunshine
