As you probably know Earthfest runs for a whole month this year and here is our first tranche of news about what you can expect.

May 28th will be a special day. In the morning at 10.30am you are invited to Lyde Green Community Centre to join the birds of nature and of fable in a journey of imagination called ‘A little bird told me’ with storyteller Michael Loader and musician Fiona Barrow. Expect a fascinating blend of story, music, dance, everything! Suitable for adults and children over 5. Poster here. Book your place now.

And then in the afternoon of May 28th, from 2- 4pm, come to Emersons Green Park and join the community opening of our new dinosaur garden, hear stories of our deep past, dance to the fiddle and accordion, make your own willow dinosaur or a little dinosaur footprint. No need to book. A poster to share here.

Finally, later on in the Earthfest season, on June 10th at 7.30pm we are delighted to welcome Charles Dowding, known across the UK, and even the world, as champion of No Dig vegetable growing. This is a rare opportunity for veg growers to learn from the deep insights gleaned from decades of experience and dedication. The venue is Resound Church, Blackhorse road. Poster available here. Book your place now.
