Family Easter Workshop: Forage, Learn & Decorate Eggs with Spring Greens
Step behind the scenes of a real foraging company this Easter and join us for a truly special seasonal activity inspired by a beautiful Eastern European tradition.
What to expect
On your way to the event, children are encouraged to look for signs of spring — fresh green leaves, tiny flowers, and interesting plants. Bring your finds along and we’ll help identify them together, sharing which are edible, useful, or simply fascinating in the wild.
Then the magic begins…
Using real eggs laid by our own garden chickens, children will create stunning natural Easter decorations. We’ll carefully place leaves onto the eggs, wrap them in muslin, and dye them in hot water. When unwrapped, each egg reveals delicate natural patterns — no two the same, each one a little work of art to take home.
All materials are provided, including pre-boiled eggs.
Relax in our garden
If the weather is kind, families are welcome to relax in our peaceful garden filled with ponds, wildlife, and plenty of seating. Meet the chickens who laid your egg, feed them, and enjoy a quiet moment while your designs come to life.
Hot drinks, teas, coffees and hot chocolate will be available at friendly prices (cash payment only).
Why join us?
- A hands-on Easter experience combining nature, creativity, culture and discovery
- • Meet the chickens, explore the garden, and learn something new
- • Create beautiful natural Easter eggs to treasure at home
Perfect for curious children, creative families, and anyone who loves celebrating the season in a meaningful way.
Tickets & timing
Tickets are sold in hourly slots to help us manage numbers. You’re welcome to arrive at any time during your booked hour, and you will not be asked to leave exactly on the hour — stay, relax and enjoy the space.
On the day, we will also offer discounted prices for our upcoming family-friendly foraging courses.
Parking
Parking is available in nearby streets or opposite the allotments (look for the small turning on the left from the Alan Moss roundabout, beside the large street sign). From there, it’s approximately a 500m walk to us.
Spaces are limited, so come and be part of something truly special this spring.
