25 MAY – 2 JUNE – HOORAY WE’RE OPEN!

To make the most of spring half-term, come along to Cotesbach and learn a new skill or two. We’ve got WORKSHOPS in Upcycling, getting Creative with Potatoes, and Experimental Drawing using charcoal, sticks, and chalk. We’ve got Tea & Buns in the cafe. We’ve got our Builders & Craftsmen exhibition and we’ve got Farmwalks.

The week kicks off with three unmissable recycling workshops. On Saturday 25 & Sunday 26 May professional Upcycler Chloe Kempster from Maisie’s House will teach us how to upcycle old wooden furniture WITHOUT having to pre-sand or prime the wood! You’ll be taught all the trade secrets and will be creating beautiful upcycled tables and chairs to furnish our new cafe space. Find out more about Chloe and her UPCYCLING WORKHOPS HERE.
