Last week we launched Paradise Bookclub, which is focussed on nature writing. Our outdoor space, covered with a tarp, allowed us to meet under the “Rule of 6” and we discussed “Birdsong in a Time of Silence” well past dusk and on by firelight. We are now reading “The Wood Age” by Roland Ennos, and are excited to be able to host more people since the Covid rules have changed.

To celebrate #worldbeeday here is some footage of a recent swarm recovery at Paradise. We now have six working hives, and our entire site biodiversity benefits as a result. #bees #beesofinstagram #communitygardening

Our Saturday morning greenwood session was held under our tarp but there was no sign of dampened enthusiasm. We had three new people join us, and so spent the morning carefully progressing through axe, drawknife, and sloyd knife techniques. We have been meeting in line with the “Rule of 6” but from today we are able to start having more people on site. If you are in SW London and fancy trying our some greenwood carving, or perhaps are an already experienced bodger looking for likeminded people, visit our website (link in bio) and sign up for our newsletter to learn more about joining our sessions. #greenwoodworking #handmade #sloyd
