We are currently taking registrations for our free UKRS accredited Horticulture/Countryside & Environment Course for the new term in September; the course covers all basic horticulture techniques and now blends elements of Countryside & Environment too.

🌱Gardening is a great way to relieve stress, improve mental and physical health by being outdoors in nature and for those who may feel socially isolated joining a course is good way meet new people in a relaxed friendly, non-judgmental environment.

It is held in our beautiful rural setting in the village of Wormingford Colchester (public transport links – no.44 Konnect bus Colchester -Sudbury route ), all participants are provided with a free hot lunch.

Our courses are mainly practical with small amounts of easy to grasp task-based theory (suitable for most learning abilities) *support workers are welcome to attend for those that require one-to-one attention.
