Nurture the land – Autumn
30 September - 5 October
Nurture and be nurtured
Come and help prepare our organic garden and polytunnels for the season ahead while taking part in community life here at Camas. In keeping with the tradition of the Highlands and Islands, we grow produce on a system of lazy beds – long ridges divided by drainage ditches.
These beds are improved and enriched by using the seaweed from the bay on our doorstep. Join us for the start of the growing season when we will be getting these beds up and running, sowing seeds for the year ahead. In addition, we have two polytunnels we hope to fill with colour and life for the months to come. Alongside sowing and growing, there will be plenty of hands-on tasks around the garden: fixing up beds, borders and compost-bins, and being creative with willow cut from the garden.
No gardening experience is necessary, this will be the chance to learn, share ideas and leave your mark at Camas. If you enjoy getting your hands dirty, evenings by the fireside, simple community living, all in the breathtaking Ross of Mull, then Nurture the Land Week is for you.
This week is led by Camas Staff.
