To celebrate 10 years of Living Vital, we are hosting an online raffle to raise vital funds to for our work.

At the heart of our community is the land. Together we grow organic food using the principles of permaculture, a way of working with nature that is guided by the ethics of earth care, people care, and fair share for all beings. Our garden is a place created for folks to get away into nature to connect with themselves, the community and the land🌿

There are 9 prizes to win, including art pieces, a foraging walk, reflexology and more!

Winners will be announced on August 31st 🌟Good Luck!

🦋If you’re not in a position to purchase tickets, please can you help us out by sharing our raffle in your networks, it all helps so much, thank you 🙏

A HUGE thank you to all those who donated. All prizes have been donated by members of our wonderful community ♥️

Another beautiful day cooking together in the garden with our friends from 🌿

Together we created a feast, including this stunning Fatteh dish, full of delicious layers, textures and flavours, the way the pomegranate glistened in the sun 😍 it was rich and comforting yet fresh and vibrant alongside a zesty fattoush salad, and a side of baba ghanoush. The photos say it all… yum 😋

A huge thank you to everyone who shared their recipes, skills, stories and cooking wisdom with us. These gatherings are about so much more than food, they’re about connection, community, laughter and learning from one another around the table.

We’re so grateful for the time we share together 💚

Another beautiful day at the garden for Beltane last Saturday. The sun was shining and folks were busy in the garden, putting up bean tipis, planting courgettes, harvesting the end of last seasons beetroot greens, planting salads, spinach, flowers while having deep and meaningful conversations - one of my favourite things to hear as I walk around the garden!

🎥We started our filming project as part of the funding.
Adam & Neill, two of our trustees, will be creating a series of films over the summer that will be used on our website and socials, a huge thank you to them for all the creative work & energy they are doing to achieve this 💚

🥗A delicious Beltane feast made by all the members, was a welcome delight after working in the garden. So many tasty and varied foods, showing how exciting food is! Thank you all for making the time to cook and share.

🌳In the afternoon we finished the day with a Beltane gathering where folks shared their songs, poems, music, stories & books while making headdresses and wands from the bounty of willow in the garden. It was beautiful listening and witnessing the stepping into vulnerability to share these precious gifts with the group, thank you. Such a poignant time of year, felt very blessed to be gathered together and honouring this time & giving deep heart felt thanks to the land, the plants & the people.

Beltane is the sacred threshold between spring and summer, a fire festival that honours the awakening of life in its fullest expression. It is a time when the Earth feels alive with fertility, passion, growth and possibility, inviting us to step fully into our own vitality and creative spirit. The fires of Beltane symbolise transformation, purification and illumination, reminding us to nurture what we wish to grow within ourselves and our communities. Beneath the blossoms, birdsong and lengthening days lies a deeper spiritual truth, that we too are part of nature’s great cycle of renewal, connection and becoming.

Beltane blessings to you all!

✨NEW UPCOMING HEALING SESSIONS✨

In the month of May, Rosa & Alex are offering a trio of healing sessions at the beautiful Living Vital garden, in Stanmer Park Brighton to support your journey from the New Flower Moon at the beginning of the month to the Full Blue Moon towards the end of the month.

💖Sunday 3rd May - Beltane New Flower Moon Sound & Reiki Healing focused on abundance, love & creativity

💜Saturday 16th May - join Rosa for tarot & Cacao working with the Goddess of Love, Aphrodite

💙Sunday 24th May - Full Blue Moon, for sound & reiki healing session focused on release, completion & new growth

You can book all three or come to them individually.

On the new & full moons there are two sessions each day, either come in the morning or the afternoon.

🔔Please note you’ll feel very relaxed after a session, so it’s best to keep the rest of the day free for gentle activities.

We’d love for you to join us!
If you have any questions or would like to book send a DM and we’ll forward more details.

Love Alex & Rosa
💗💜💙

Late in the season polytunnel clearing, but we just had to wait until the very last minute as we had so many oriental leaves, beet greens, mustards from the over winter beds to make the most of the beautiful abundance they provided all spring! 🥬

Next in tomatoes, chilli’s, aubergines, peppers & herbs will go in over the next week.

Folks also started work on restoring our entrance arch harvested wood from our hazel trees 🌳
