date: | last Thursday of every month (except July, August and December) |
overview: | I will open the workshop to a maximum of 3 people on the last Thursday of each month (unless otherwise stated). Each participant can pursue a project of their choice – for example, chair making, hurdle making, stools and other green wood projects, baskets or willow garden structures. Workshop days are open to those who have already attended a course, and wish to practice their skills. I will be working as usual, but will be available for in-depth tuition, or gentle guidance (as required!). Workshop facilities and resources will be available as usual. |

Bore Place is an environmental and educational charity on a 500 acre organic dairy farm, set in beautiful low weald countryside.

Directions will be sent to you once you’ve booked on a course and can also be accessed from the Workshop Directions Page. |
