Something different for Saturday afternoon!
On Saturday afternoon there is the option for people to visit the Karuna Permaculture project 2.30pm - 4.30pm at Picklescott just a few miles from the campsite. Permaculture has been described as "a revolution disguised as gardening". The Wheelhouse family, are trying to live a low-carbon, low-impact lifestyle and have created an amazing forest garden with 7,000 trees, including 80 different types of apple. See http://www.karuna.org.uk/ for more details.
Come and see the future and share delicious pizza from Karuna's earth oven. There is no charge, but numbers limited so please click into this doodle if you want to come: http://www.doodle.com/yruaw68e34t7erup
Look forward to seeing you in September!
