Expect soil study, beetle safaris, looking after animals, planting and teamwork. Children become wild, resilient and independent for the day!

The success of cooking food over wood and charcoal depends on the fuel. We use hardwood firewood mini-logs, sustainably sources from our site, then seasoned and air dried for an excellent bed of embers. British beech/oak/ash. Each wood has a different heat and smoke profile so we make sure each bag is a good mix. Sold in 20kg onion net bags, ideal for storage.

A natural fertiliser, and magical for flowers, vegetables, and herbaceous plans. A very light sprinkling of good hardwood ash is all that’s needed to return potash to the soil. Potash is a major source of potassium which supports root growth and fruit-bearing.
