We are stepping into the wild to discover the seasonal treats nature has hidden for us and create something beautiful using the very ground we walk on. This day is all about us connecting with the earth and learning its secrets together.
We’ll start our day with a gentle walk through the woods to see what’s in season. Together, we will search for Wild Garlic, learning to follow our noses to find the lush patch of wild garlic at the edge of the park, along with other spring greens.
Once we’ve gathered our bounty, we’ll transform our finds into delicious wild garlic recipes to take home and share!
At lunch, we’ve got the run of the park! We’ll be scrambling over the fallen trees, testing our balance on the slackline in the woods, or maybe just sharing a quiet moment in the hammock.
After we’ve enjoyed our foraged finds, we’ll turn our focus to a unique bit of woodland magic—making earth candles. Carving out a small patch of earth we’ll pour warm wax into the hole and watch as it takes the shape of the ground, creating a beautiful textured candle that carries the patterns of the earth.
INSTRUCTIONS
We can't wait to welcome you to Base Camp. To keep your child happy and dry in the woods, please send them with the following:
All seasons
Clothing: Long-sleeved tops and full-length trousers are required to protect against nettles, scratches, and ticks - tracksuit bottoms or leggings are perfect.
Think like an onion! Multiple thin layers (thermal, fleece, jacket) are better than one big coat.
Footwear:
Waterproof wellies or sturdy walking boots are essential.
In Their Backpack:
A change of clothes (extra socks are a must!).
Waterproof jacket and trousers (even on dry days!).
A labelled water bottle, sun hat/sunscreen (summer), or warm hat/gloves (winter).
Packed Lunch (we provide drinks and snacks)
Top Tip: We love mud! Please send your child in old clothes that you don’t mind getting dirty or snagged.
