Come WWOOF with us...
You are welcome to come and WWOOF at Steward Wood. Phone us (0845 458 1926 or 01647 440233) if you are interested in booking a place. (WWOOFing is a splendid system wherein people visit interesting organic type places and work in exchange for food and accomodation.). Mostly people come on a short term basis (for up to 2 weeks) but there are also long term WWOOFing opportunities available.
Home Education Picnics and Science
We are running a monthly picnic in the woods for home educating families to come and share food, chat over tea and enjoy the woods with the children. Please bring a packed lunch and suitable clothing for the weather. It will run from 11am to 3pm on the first Friday of the month. We are also now running science sessions once a month. Please check the website or phone (Beccy 07941 786552) before coming just in case of cancellation. More info...
