Free Nature Session

Join us at Firs estate allotments for a free nature session on Saturday June 15th at 11am.

Our allotments are absolutely buzzing with all sorts of plants, flowers, fungi, birds, and bugs in June! We will divide our time between the community plot and the tranquil wildlife plot. We will show you how to make brushes and pens from twigs, how to sketch with coal from our fire, and how to sculpt with clay from our soil. Or simply come along to sketch your surroundings in peace. Bring along any art supplies you would like to use; we will have some communal supplies on hand too.

Tools and refreshments provided, please come dressed for the weather. This is a family friendly event and open to all. We would love to see the local community come and check the allotments out and see what we are all about. Please email use with any questions: mycosiauk@gmail.com

The Firs Estate Allotments participatory programme is funded by Foundation Derbyshire.

Date: Saturday 15th June
