Fairweather's Learning Garden     New For 2010!  

This special event is designed to help your team to really get involved with learning new skills.  Half of the day is spent exploring the wonderful Beaulieu River by open canoe, whilst the other half is spent in a 'learning garden' getting to grips with seeds, plants and trellising.

The event is built around your needs and even seasoned gardeners will be challenged by this event.  Likewise if you've never dug the ground before, you'll be guided by a team of professionals in an ideal environment.

The History

Fairweather's Learning Garden has been developed to educate and inspire children and adults to Grow their Own Vegetables and Fruit through a broad range of educational, community and commercial objectives.

 

The Garden provides a location for the local community and schools to learn in a hands-on environment - How Plants Grow, Where Food Comes From, Insect Identification and Composting as well as giving the opportunity to carry out practical gardening tasks. It also provides an interesting and inspiring attraction in Beaulieu Village that promotes a sustainable way of life.
