Join Wild Harvest in the rural outskirts of York for a Natural Christmas Crafts Day.
On the morning make a beautiful wreath of seasonal greenery.
Learn the art of wreath making and take away your own work of art. Suitable for beginners and experienced alike.
Break for lunch (please bring a packed lunch) Mince pies and Di's native spiced chai will be offered as winter warming refreshments throughout the day. - no need to import them they grow all around you for FREE!
After lunch make festive beeswax candles displays using logs and apples as holders to hold the sheet candles you will make.
Finally, spend the last hour weaving a willow star to hang up on your wall. Make a large one to add fairy lights as a wall decoration or greenery or even add a vintage luggage tag to give it as a re-useable Christmas card to a friend.

Christmas crafts day review:
We spent the morning making Christmas wreaths
herbal teas and coffee provided ( need to bring your own teabags if you want a proper cup of tea)
Everything you need to make wreath was provided lots of guidance its a lot easier than you think no wrong way of doing it each made our own design
We all brought a packed lunch
Then Di showed us how to make Chai from local foraged ingredients we then made Bees wax candles and a wicker star
It was fun relaxing and very informative we will definitely do another course
Have previously been on a forage walk with Di who is knowledgeable about how to live sustainably using vegitation found locally she is Yorkshires female bear grills with out any push preaching just a lovley informative lady
I would highly recommend
Very Good value for money".

Some of our F.A.Q
Got a Question...?
Where are you based?
We are based in the rural outskirts of York, 12 miles from the city, but we.do work all over. If you are coming here for your glamping, activities or walks/course then we can be found on Google maps HERE
Can I Bring My Dog?
To the wild food walks yes, well behaved dogs on leads are welcome. To the tipi site... Sorry we love animals but we. have a free range sheep, hens and an old labrador. Plus we have a policy of no animals in the units to keep them feeling fresh and ok for allergy sufferers. We are down the road from Storwood Kennels if you need pet boarding.
What if I Can't Make It?
We know you wouldn't want us to cancel on you and hope that you see we book tutors, organise resources and block time out for bookings so we allow you to sell your space on, or gift it to a friend. Or we can offer you online courses and ebooks instead.
What Areas Do You Cover?
If you want to book us to come to you...Our radius for attended walks, courses and activities bookings is approximately from Newcastle in the North to Nottingham in the South, Hull in the East to Manchester in the West. if in doubt just ask in the chat box or enquiry form.
