MindFood - all our nature-based courses are FREE!!
Happy New Year from everyone at MindFood! For anyone who doesn’t know us yet, we are a small local charity (reg. no 1185639) running nature-based courses that help people to tackle stress, depression, anxiety and isolation. All our sessions are FREE, run 6 days a week, and we can sign you up right away...so why wait to feel better : )Our Growing Wellbeing courses are a fun and informal way to reconnect with nature, learn how to grow food, and pick up tips and techniques to improve wellbeing, like mindfulness. Participants can take home veg they’ve helped to grow, and can even join a free trip to Kew at the end. Here are the upcoming dates:Wed 22nd Jan 10.30-12.30 at Cleveley Crescent AllotmentsFriday 24th Jan 1-3.30pm at Cleveley Crescent Allotments (W5 1DZ)Tues 25th Feb at Horsenden Farm (UB6 7PB)We’ve chosen to run the Cleveley Crescent courses at around the same time to allow participants to swap into another session in the same week if they can’t make their usual one. This makes it easier to complete the whole programme - so these sessions are ideal for anyone juggling tricky work or care commitments. It’s even possible to join in week 2 if timing’s are tight.We also run Naturally Creative sessions at Horsenden on Thursdays 10-12, which combine mindful nature-based activities eg a walk or a forage (or both!) and an opportunity to develop your creative side with sketching, making collages, willow-weaving, and more...Every Saturday, we have Plot to Plate sessions at the Farm from 10-12 - they’re the ideal way to de-stress after a busy week, and a great way to meet more of your community.And finally, look out for details of our Seed Swap event in February - you’re sure to pick up a bargain, and some unusual finds.
