Spring Wild Skills - Butter Knife, Nettle Pesto And Campfire Experience

A family carving experience in Clare Castle Country Park on Friday 17th April, 10.00-12.30.

You will collect stinging nettles to make your own delicious wild pesto and try nettle tea.

Have a go at whittling and carve your own butter knife to spread it onto bread toasted on the campfire.

Tickets are available to be purchased in pairs of one adult and one youth (11-16 years old) with both individuals taking part in the workshop. Both members of the pair must be present for the duration of the session.

The Woodland Haberdasher
Based just outside of Bury St Edmunds, The Woodland Haberdasher has always had a great love of all things wild and wonderful that grow from the land. Spending much of her time making, experimenting, reading, walking about and occasionally creating fires in Suffolk, Fay's eyes were opened to a new realm of experimentation and carving.

She enjoys the process of harvesting wild and raw materials and turning them into beautiful yet functional objects that are loved and used every day. An enthusiastic teacher, she has been working in collaboration with Suffolk Wildlife Tryst for the last 5 years, running workshops and talks for the WI, Guiding and other groups.
