Nicky reviewed: Willow Weaving – Tea & Cake Tray

"Great introduction to weaving - having never done any before, I came away with a completed basket and a new.skill. The small group (4) meant we all had lots of 1-1 attention and support so could progress at our own pace. "

Denmark Farm Conservation Centre responded:

"Thanks for joining us Nicky. We're so pleased that you enjoyed making your basket. Hope to see you again. Best wishes. Mara "

Dawn & Ben reviewed: Identifying Trees in Winter

"We attended the, 'Identifying trees in winter' workshop. The site is a wonderful wildlife haven. The classroom-based introduction and field work were both informative and fun. We feel better prepared to ID winter trees and with more practise may retain the skills you imparted. Thank you for sharing your huge talent and passion for nature. "

Denmark Farm Conservation Centre responded:

"Thank you for your kind review. We will pass this onto Ryan. Hope to see you again soon. Mara"

Amanda Newman reviewed: Willow Wreath Weaving workshops

"I really enjoyed the afternoon making the Christmas Wreath with other lovely ladies. Our tutor Justine brought in some amazing willow to make the circular wreath and wonderful mixed foliage together with colourful ribbons for decoration. Justine was incredibly patient, helpful and her instructions were very clear. Not being a very creative person myself I was very pleased with my wreath and the best thing is, when the foliage dies back, you can keep the willow ring and make use of it over and over again, and not just for Christmas! Thank you Mara, Justine and Denmark Farm"

Denmark Farm Conservation Centre responded:

"Thank you for coming along to this workshop Amanda, and for supporting our work at Denmark Farm. We're so glad you enjoyed the afternoon and that you are pleased with your wreath. Have a lovely Christmas and look forward to seeing you again soon. Best wishes. Mara"
