Hi, my name is Alison and I have a diploma in Applied Permaculture Design an open our one acre family garden at Foxfield as a permaculture demonstration LAND Centre through the UK Permaculture Association.
Dates for 2025 opening are 6th May until 12th October, by appointment only.
As well as an annual open day and private permaculture tours, I offer Emergence Sessions for developing emotional sensitivity and intuitive connection with nature. Contact me for information on bespoke sessions for individuals, couples or small groups who would like to explore a deeper experience of themselves within nature.
I can combine practical tours/advice and Emergence sessions if you fancy both!
Please see the 2025 programme and booking details here.
Meanwhile there are lots of pictures and projects for you to enjoy on the website. If you would like to contact me about your own projects, please drop me an email via the contact page.
