"Workshops are the bomb with Alice & Gavin! & Thanks you, we need more people like you in the world!"  Amsterdam School of the Arts

You don't even need any gardening, design or artistic experience! Beginning with the stand-alone workshop, Think Like A Tree, we will set the scene for later workshops exploring our methods. 

The workshop includes the following (as well as lunch!):

1) Introduction to Full Grown, and a tour of the Chair Orchard

2) Choosing your Tree Buddy

3) Taking a Ficus elastica cutting

4) Introduction to Symmetry in Nature and Biophilic Design

5) Creating your own design, using your Tree Buddy as inspiration

Limited to 12 people - on the 3rd and 24th of September 2026.

You'll get lunch, a tour of the Chair Orchard and a chance to put yourself in a different perspective. With the support of Arts Derbyshire Derbyshire County Council Derbyshire County Council.
