Wiggles & Wonders!
Growing Local CIC
A summary
Get ready for a hands-on day of garden-inspired creativity and wiggly worm adventures! Meet the stars of our wormery and learn all about their underground world. Go on a worm-themed scavenger hunt, explore camouflage, and craft your very own wriggly worm creation. Make clay seed bombs to explode with wildflowers at the farm—and take some home too! What else can you sculpt from garden clay? Let your imagination lead the way! Paint stones, create garden creatures, and design plant markers to brighten up our beds. We’ll also harvest ingredients and cook a delicious lunch together. Come get messy, creative, and curious in the garden!

About your mentor
Growing Local CIC
Growing Local CIC
Growing Local is a community interest company that encourages and educates communities to grow, cook and eat local food. In the summer of 2023 Growing Local took over a new 19-acre agricultural site, The Southside Farm, on the southern edge of Hereford to establish a veg box scheme, a children’s educational garden and heritage orchards. We work with schools and communities delivering educational programmes and events in sustainable food growing, nature, crafting, cooking and more.

Cancellation policy
Free bookings do not require refunds but as places are limited, please cancel if you cannot attend so that your place can be offered to someone else.
My experience is an educational activity, and the ‘14-day cooling period’ under the Consumer Contracts Regulations 2013 therefore applies. After the 14 day period my standard policy will apply.
