We’re getting ready for Open Farm Sunday this weekend …are you? Our volunteers have been putting the finishing touches to signage to help you have a great experience.

We are delighted that Mayor Sharon Harvey of Bewdley will be formally opening the EdShed at 11.30am. The Ed Shed is a brilliant space where Team WCLT can host a wide range of our educational activities, meetings and courses whatever the weather.

On Sunday, we have lots of activities taking place in the Ed Shed and in the Barn, and a big shelter over the wood pasture to keep you all dry ☂️.

We look forward to welcoming you to St George’s Farm. See you all on Sunday 💙.
