Things are looking up here at Practically Wild… and this is the view from the loo 🙂

Turning a dream into reality is always exciting, but setting up a new venture can be challenging too. It’s at those times that having great people around is vital.

We’ve only been operating for a year, and in that time we’ve been lucky enough to be supported by so many fantastic people. The free start up workshop, our generous and accommodating hosts, our friends, family, and customers… we couldn’t have got here without you.

And yesterday we received a significant and unexpected gift, given with so much love and generosity of spirit that it took our breath away, and will keep us moving in the right direction ❤️

A huge and heartfelt thank you to you all, and we hope you are having a wonderful long weekend ☀️

Tonight we’re raising a glass (of elderflower cordial of course 😉) to the Practically Wild Women who made a balmy afternoon in the woods into something really magical 🌟

‘Togetherness, laughter, and the final product’ sums it up really well, and the quality of the work produced really blew us away.

Our next scheduled creative session will take place on :

Sunday 26th July 12.00 - 15.00

and spaces are filling fast. To book yours, or to find out more, contact us on:
07970 545317 or send us a message and we’ll get back to you 🙂

The £25 fee includes refreshments and a light lunch, with all kit and PPE provided.

Look how happy we are… just a cuppa and some good company under the leafy green canopy. It’s the simple pleasures! 😁

We’re really looking forward to our next Practically Wild Women’s woodland session on 23rd May, with a focus on slowing the pace and finding the joy in the small things together. This one is now fully booked, but we’ve added another women’s whittling one on:

Sunday 26th July 2026 12 - 3pm

The £25 fee includes a light lunch and refreshments, and we will guide you through the process of making an item of your choosing using green wood and hand tools. It will be an opportunity to practice your fire skills too!

On Saturday we got Practically Wild in the Woods, and spent a lovely couple of hours with some fabulous people completing a rather tricky ‘worm’ and ‘caterpillar’ hunt, making nests and finding out more about our amazing native birds and their food sources 🐛 🐜 🐜

Our next family session is on Sat 20th June 12 -3pm, and is for parent/caregiver and tween/teen, with a focus on fire skills. The £30 charge covers one adult and one young person, and includes a light lunch.

What an awesome weekend it’s been… as part of our Practically Wild Women’s Wild Food session we had a really good look at some edible flowers, and collected and prepared what we needed to make a tasty curry with flat bread, pakora and raita ☀️
And then today we had a woodland fairy celebration where we crafted the contents of our own party bags ⭐
THANK YOU to all of the gorgeous people who came along, and those of you who support us to make this happen 🙏

This is me looking down at yet another edible plant, after spotting 21 on a tiny little stroll this morning. 21! The abundance of Spring is marvellous 🤩

If you would like to find out more about how to forage safely and responsibly, why not join us on our Practically Wild Women’s Wild Food session on Saturday 25th April 12 - 3pm, when we’ll have a little wander around Westfield before returning to the woodland to cook… on a fire of course!

£25 buys you some time in nature with like-minded others, a delicious light lunch and some identification skills to add to 🍃

☀️ What a lovely busy sunny time we had in the woodland yesterday… a big Practically Wild thank you to all of the wonderful women who made it so jolly (and to Joe and Izzy too) 😁

We so appreciate your patience as we learn and grow… we will be in touch with a date for a willow weaving tutorial very soon ☀️
