What have we done to reassure you during Covid-19?

1. We manage capacity.

As always, we limit our capacity to 10 bookable spaces maximum per group (one or two children maximum can book accompanied by one adult only) which is a maximum of 20 adults and children at one time.

2. We run courses for the same group of people every week.

Each course will have the same group at the same allotted time each week for the whole 6-week half term. Spaces are available for booking, one space per child, adults don’t need to book.

3. We facilitate distancing by being outdoors in a large natural site and also by:

Using our newly built and floored open shelter with spaced out benches and work surfaces with wipeable tops to allow enough space for each family.

Providing a disinfectant hand gel on-site, and using two spaced out handwash sinks in addition to a double washing up sink.

Being mindful while planning for our sessions to spread participants out at work areas (weeding in separate beds, cooking and food preparation on different work surfaces, and harvesting from different plants, or alternating the tasks, for example).

What do we expect of you?

Book your course well in advance (a maximum of two children and one adult per family).

Carefully read our handbook, and Covid-19 policy which will be sent out in a welcome email upon booking, and return the booking forms which you will find on this website before booking any courses/events.

Stay at home if you or anyone in your household displays symptoms of Covid-19.

Respect social distancing by following the guidelines in our handbook and the group leaders’ instructions.

Bring your own gloves, bowls, water bottles/flasks, and cutlery.
