Are you interested in well-being and mental health, and how we can live well together? Wondering about the effects of biodiversity? Curious about growing food? Want to discover perspectives from the ancient Christian faith that may have something to say about all of this? If so, would you consider joining us for our first session on Sunday 2nd March at 10.30am and finishing by 12pm (Additional dates include the 16th and 30th of March. After that it will be every other Sunday.)

We’ll spend some time working in the garden, weeding, sowing, planting, harvesting, cooking, etc, as the seasons allow. There will be time for tea/coffee, biscuits – and possibly homemade cake! During this time we will look at some of the above issues, using resources from an ecological organisation www.arocha.org.uk. You can check them out using the QR code above.

Anything else? Yes, for those who would like to stay, we will be having a 15 minute talk, plus questions, about Faith, Spirituality and Caring for the Environment at around 12.30pm  – On the first Sunday the speaker is: Regina Ebner who works for ecology advocacy agency A Rocha (https://arocha.org.uk/) at Ashburnham Place.
