A morning to enjoy the farm in the summer, have a cup of tea and a biscuit whilst you wait for it to develop and pick a posy of flowers to adorn your table or give to a friend. You have the chance to make two stunning prints during this session. No artistic ability needed, just a chance to explore composition and see what the sun makes…
The adult session is suitable for ages 16 upwards. Please note that due to the nature of the craft if there is a terrible downpour we will have to postpone, but it does still work in cloud cover.
Tickets 15 pounds, concessions available.

The Longer Table - July
The Longer Table is a seasonal feast in the fields at Four Acre Farm. These are gatherings built around the simple, ancient act of breaking bread together. Good food, open conversation and the remembering of what community meant to us all before the noise increased.
Slow Down
A morning to tend to yourself.
Do you need time to stop, to gather inward, to let go, or to reflect? Do you promise yourself space for these things, yet it never quite seems to happen?
During the darker half of the year, nature teaches us to slow down. Stillness, reflection, and silence are more readily cultivated in this season. Yet the patriarchal, colonial structures of the Western world urge us to keep pushing—to finish the to-do list, get results, stay busy. There is always something to do.
Over time, this constant momentum can leave us feeling stressed, exhausted, apathetic, or low. When this becomes a pattern, it may contribute to anxiety, deeper mental health challenges, or unhealthy coping habits. So how do we find time to slow down?
Perhaps these thoughts resonate with you. Or perhaps you simply long for a moment each month that is just for you—a designated, protected time that offers space, stillness, and the opportunity to reset and reflect.
We will gather on a Friday morning each month to sit in nature: to craft something small with our hands, to journal, to touch the earth, and to share a quiet moment together.
We will begin with a silent meditation. You may already have a sitting practice, or you may choose simply to observe—listening to birds and insects, noticing the plants around you and how they change through the months. This is your time to draw inward, to pause, breathe more deeply, and begin to connect.
We will then gather around the fire for a herbal tea ceremony, followed by time to journal or record what is present for you. Over time, this becomes a gentle diary of reflection, allowing you to see how you have felt and shifted across the seasons.
Next, you will be guided to craft something—a small gift to yourself made by your own hands, weaving the essence of that moment into your creation. We will then tend to a part of the garden together (or alone, if needed), touching the earth and noticing how we can interact with it. No gardening experience is required.
Finally, we will harvest and prepare a simple meal together to share around the fire.
This is a quiet, spacious morning in nature. No demands. No pressure. Just using your body and hands in gentle, intentional ways to settle into the present moment and embody whatever is alive for you at that time.

The Natural Network
The Natural Network is a collaboration between Kate Forrester of Four Acre Farm and Nick Whitnell of Daring Works.
Today, most of us spend the majority of our time indoors, under artificial light, glued to screens, trying to force ideas on demand. The result is well documented - burnout, exhaustion and a persistent sense of not doing 'enough'.
The Natural Network was created as a response to that. It is a series of gatherings aligned with the Wheel of the Year, an ancient cycle that has oriented humans for most of our history.
CEOs sit alongside entrepreneurs. Career pivoters share a table with people who have led organisations for decades. What they have in common is not a job title or a sector but a growing sense that the way most of us work is not quite right and a belief that something better is worth building. We think that mix produces conversations you will not find anywhere else.
Meet your hosts:
Kate Forrester – No-dig market gardener, chef and educator at Four Acre Farm. Kate's work regenerates soil, wildlife and community. Her understanding of how natural systems actually function brings something to these mornings that is genuinely difficult to put into words until you have experienced it.
Nick Whitnell – Award-winning marketer turned sustainability strategist, coach and founder of Daring Works and The Natural Network. Nick has spent decades helping organisations find their direction and their voice. These days he does the same for the people inside them and the ones choosing to go it alone.
Four Acre Farm – Four regenerative acres of market garden, orchard, meadow and hedgerows. A living example of renewal and interconnected systems.
Includes: Guided strategy and reflection session, farm walk, seasonal produce, lunch and 30-minute follow-up coaching conversation with Nick.
Tickets are £99 with a £20 discount for newsletter subscribers.

Slow Down
A morning to tend to yourself.
Do you need time to stop, to gather inward, to let go, or to reflect? Do you promise yourself space for these things, yet it never quite seems to happen?
During the darker half of the year, nature teaches us to slow down. Stillness, reflection, and silence are more readily cultivated in this season. Yet the patriarchal, colonial structures of the Western world urge us to keep pushing—to finish the to-do list, get results, stay busy. There is always something to do.
Over time, this constant momentum can leave us feeling stressed, exhausted, apathetic, or low. When this becomes a pattern, it may contribute to anxiety, deeper mental health challenges, or unhealthy coping habits. So how do we find time to slow down?
Perhaps these thoughts resonate with you. Or perhaps you simply long for a moment each month that is just for you—a designated, protected time that offers space, stillness, and the opportunity to reset and reflect.
We will gather on a Friday morning each month to sit in nature: to craft something small with our hands, to journal, to touch the earth, and to share a quiet moment together.
We will begin with a silent meditation. You may already have a sitting practice, or you may choose simply to observe—listening to birds and insects, noticing the plants around you and how they change through the months. This is your time to draw inward, to pause, breathe more deeply, and begin to connect.
We will then gather around the fire for a herbal tea ceremony, followed by time to journal or record what is present for you. Over time, this becomes a gentle diary of reflection, allowing you to see how you have felt and shifted across the seasons.
Next, you will be guided to craft something—a small gift to yourself made by your own hands, weaving the essence of that moment into your creation. We will then tend to a part of the garden together (or alone, if needed), touching the earth and noticing how we can interact with it. No gardening experience is required.
Finally, we will harvest and prepare a simple meal together to share around the fire.
This is a quiet, spacious morning in nature. No demands. No pressure. Just using your body and hands in gentle, intentional ways to settle into the present moment and embody whatever is alive for you at that time.
