Spring Pruning Workshop
Easter Wreath Workshop
15 March
22 March
This illustrated talk and practical demonstration will start in the morning when we will cover the fundamentals of what, when, where and how to prune. After lunch you will be putting your new-found skills into practice in the Arboretum. The workshop will take place both outdoors and in the Summer House, so sturdy footwear and gardening gloves are a must!
We believe that wreaths are for every season, and this workshop is a wonderful way to create a beautiful, nature-inspired door wreath to welcome family and friends to your home at Easter and to celebrate the joys of springtime. The morning workshop, led by our Curator, Faith Douglas, will take place in our beautiful Summer House.
Yoga & Wellness Retreat Days Various dates throughout the year Our Yoga & Wellness retreat days will be held in the beautiful Summer House overlooking Thorp Perrow’s private garden and lake. Enjoy seasonal juices, tea and coffee on arrival before preparing for a morning of yoga and guided meditation led by Kelly (Yorkshire Yogi). A nutritious two-course lunch will start the afternoon off before you head into the Arboretum for forest bathing and a guided mindfulness walk around the gardens with Thorp Perrow’s Curator, Faith. Return to the Summer House for guided relaxation and an introduction to breathwork.
