We ❤️ Broad beans. Broad beans always look so restful in their soft, downy beds - it almost seems a shame to yank them out & eat them. But young beans, eaten straight from the pod are a real treat for early summer. For more on this - see our insta grid today.

Thank you Beth for leading us through a tea making workshop last week, with medicinal plants grown in and around Paradise. A truly delightful way to spend a Tuesday afternoon!

Fire making is a popular part of our Wellbeing with nature sessions! We teach the children fire safety and how to build a fire - step by step. When the fire is roaring - cooking can begin! Eating campfire treats together is the perfect way to end these sessions. 🔥

Growing your own gives you the freedom to explore fruit and vegetables that aren’t readily available in supermarkets. Pictured here are patty pan squash, yard long beans, sea buckthorn and okra.

Year 2 had a fantastic time at Paradise Cooperative. They built wattle and daub walls and then re-created the Great Fire of London using paper Tudor houses. As you can see by the reactions, it was amazing!
