The Flower Garden Retreat 25th

The Flower Garden Retreat 10am for 10.30 start on the Saturday until 8.30pm. 10am start on the Sunday until 4pm. Two days of seasonal flowers, food and slow creativity. Step out of the everyday and into the flower garden. The Flower Garden Retreat is a non-residential weekend held at The Cut Flower Garden, created for those who long to slow down, work with their hands and be immersed in flowers and nature. Over two gentle days, you’ll harvest seasonal blooms, learn practical flower skills and create beautiful pieces to take home. The retreat includes lunch on both days and a shared dinner on Saturday evening, offering time to connect, unwind and enjoy being part of a small, like-minded group. This is not a fast-paced floristry course or a structured wellness retreat. It is an invitation to be present, to create slowly and to be held by the rhythm of the garden. What the weekend includes Cutting and conditioning flowers in the garden Creating a hand-tied bouquet using seasonal blooms A willow making activity using natural materials Making a dried flower wreath All flowers, materials and tools provided Lunch on both days and dinner on Saturday evening All the items you create are yours to take home The flow of the weekend Saturday — Gathering & Creating You’ll begin by harvesting flowers in the flower field and learn how to condition them for longevity. After lunch, you’ll create a hand-tied bouquet, followed by a relaxed willow-making session later in the afternoon.

Church Family Picnic

Church Family Picnic Occurring for 2 hours, 30 mins Venue Woodgate Green Address Following the Parish Weekend, one of the strongest themes from your feedback was a desire for more opportunities to come together as one church family and celebrate what God is doing across our villages. We're delighted to invite everyone to a Parish Picnic & Outdoor Worship gathering on Sunday 26 July on the village green in Woodgate, Pease Pottage (weather permitting). Bring a picnic to share, along with your own drinks and a chair or picnic blanket. We'll gather from 12:30pm, enjoy lunch together from 1:00pm, and then share a short time of outdoor worship at around 2:00pm. On this Sunday there will be: 9:00am – Holy Communion at St Mark's 10:00am – Morning Worship at All Saints There will be no service at St Mary's, as we encourage everyone to join us for the afternoon gathering in Woodgate. If the weather means we need to change our plans, we'll let everyone know by email and via the Parish WhatsApp Community. Parking: Please avoid parking in front of the café. Parking is available near the school, and if possible, we'd encourage you to car share. We hope you'll be able to join us for an afternoon of food, fellowship and worship together.
