Event Description
Join us for an introduction to hedge-laying on the beautiful hillsides overlooking the wonderful Tanat Valley at Dolydd Gobaith with decorated hedgelayer Jim Kilpatrick. Jim is an award-winning craftsman who lays hedges to a beautiful standard and is an excellent teacher. He’ll give you a very solid grounding in the foundations of the craft and quickly give you a good set of hedge-laying skills.
If you’re keen, there will be a chance to put your new skills into practice and get comfortable with hedge-laying the following day, while helping to contribute to our conservation work at Dolydd Gobaith.
And if you’re truly hooked, there will also be opportunities to carry on practising and helping us maintain the hedgerows at Dolydd Gobaith.
We have 6 spots available for theday.
Tuition is £50 for the day, although we also have a concessionary rate of £25. Please get in touch to book your spot or find out more about concessions.
Hedge layers with some experience are also welcome to develop their skills further. A supervised follow up practise session will take place on Monday 9th February.
