Workshops, Courses and Events

Join us in the woods for hands-on workshops celebrating ancient rural crafts — from whittling and willow weaving to natural dyeing and traditional woodland skills.

Guided by passionate instructors, each session invites you to slow down, reconnect with nature, and experience the joy of making by hand.


Set among centuries-old trees, The Clearing is a peaceful retreat from city life — a place to create, connect, and restore your spirit.

Whether you're a seasoned maker or a curious beginner, step into the woods and discover the healing power of craft.
