    TIME: 13:30 – 14:45
    LOCATION: Monks Yard

    DESCRIPTION
    With his days distracted by the ping of communication and the tug of commitments, Mark wondered how he might better savour this one precious life. He started to write and photograph each week, hoping that this simple commitment might sharpen his appreciation of the magic in the everyday and his time spent in the kitchen. This was how his book “Abundance“ came about. It reminds us that abundance comes in many forms – the passing of the seasons, our connection to the world around us, and the wealth that a garden, a town and its surrounding landscapes offers.

     

     

  • Tristan Gooley - The Hidden Seasons

    Tristan Gooley – The Hidden Seasons

    £10.00

    DATE: Thursday 4th June
    TIME: 17:30 – 18:45
    LOCATION: Monks Yard

    DESCRIPTION
    In “The Hidden Seasons” Tristan Gooley shows us how to read the clues that the sun, moon, stars, plants, fungi, animals, water and weather give us – but that we continually miss because we don’t know where and how to look. As with Tristan’s other books, we are inspired to go outdoors and explore these signs for ourselves, giving us many rich insights into our turning year. The seasons will never look, sound or smell the same again.
