Wow! Check out Eddie's amazing bowl, which he made in our Pottery Workshop. Eddie made it for his mum a few months back, and we love the nature-inspired detail. Well done!

Our gardens are beautiful in the frost, but we struggled to stay outside for long. Stuart amazed us with his willow-weaving skills, making a natural divider in the Growdome. We made an untreated waste wood bonfire, which the Pottery Workshop enjoyed with us.

Well done to our gardens team! They've made new beds & paths. The garlic has popped up, and we're growing winter and spring bedding plants. Chloe & Shirley sowed sweet peas. Shaun photographed a stunning devil's coach horse beetle!
