When: Sunday 8th March
Time: 3.30 – 5.00 p.m.
Where: Little Elses Woods, Sevenoaks Weald, TN14 6QX
Cost: £10 Little Elses Woods, Sevenoaks Weald TN14 6QX At our next workshop, we’ll be working with the change of seasons, noticing how the transition from winter to spring affects the landscape. Not only that, how does it affect us? How are we getting ready to move forward into the next phase?

And who doesn’t love spending time with the trees? This poetry writing workshop in a natural setting aims to be a mindful experience. It will be an exercise to awaken the senses and tune in to what is around us, making connections and evoking memories. It is a workshop is for everybody, and for anyone who would like to explore their connection with nature through words.
