After being a course leader and lecturer in Horticulture at Nottingham Trent University for nearly 20 years I am now working on a new venture in Limousin, France. In our plant nursery and garden school we aim to carry on sharing our passion for horticulture and natural crafts.
Specialist subjects include plant science, propagation, plant identification, specialist traditional and modern pruning and maintenance techniques. We also teach greenwood crafts, weaving, stained glass art and other crafts using natural materials.
Chicken wire sculpture: Indian Runner Duck Tuesday 13th August
Learn how to use chicken wire as a medium for sculpture and create a lifelike Indian Runner Duck for your garden.
Tuesday 13th August 2019 10-4.30: 55€ per person
All materials, refreshments and a light lunch are included in the price. This workshop is suitable for beginners as full instruction in the techniques will be given. Chicken wire is easy to manipulate but does require a little strength and dexterity to work on a large sculpture like the duck. We will support everyone to finish their sculpture if they need a little help.
THIS COURSE IS NOW FULLY BOOKED PLEASE GET IN TOUCH TO REQUEST EXTRA DATES
