" I've been using the cream / lotion / face oil we made I just wanted to say I'm so impressed with them that I've thrown out all the other old bottles & jars I had lurking in my bedroom. I have rosacea as well as dry skin and my face is really clearing up - and it's only Tuesday!! " Hege 2011 |

| Sunday July 8th 10.30 a.m. - 4.00 p.m. PROPAGATING with Richard Gatenby An opportunity for the novice or the experienced gardener to gain from Richards down to earth approach and long experience. He will demonstrate the treatment of cuttings and dividing plants, and will discuss suitable compost and the use of cold frames. The day will cover annuals, biennuals and perennials, both hardy and tender plants. Late summer is a good time to take cuttings so participants will be able to put their new skills immediately into practice. Richard is head gardener at Barnsley House, just a few yards from Herbs for Healing, but with a totally different style and scale to ours. Richard has many years experience as a hands on gardener and has risen to the challenge of giving Barnsley House Gardens a new lease of life making it worthy of its reputation as one of Britain's finest gardens. Cost £65 including lunch |
"A truly brilliant – informative, fun, beautiful and memorable day. I am so inspired and can't wait to propogate everywhere!! You organized it so well in a relaxed way – a big thank you to Ellie (food)- Richard (teacher) (excellent ) and you (for the lift) See you in the market." Alice, Stroud. 2011 |

![]() Gosh! Left the herb garden feeling so calm and wonderful on Monday night and wanted to stay Thank you. It was total respite from the city which is exactly what I needed, but you chaps have created such a cosseting idyll at Barnsley both from the beauty and spirituality of the garden itself and from your collective warmth as people. It was such fun and such a giggle… and I learnt hugely (I know for sure others felt the same). Tamsin C Bank hols 2011 |

Harvest Herb Walk This is a good time for harvest, so a walk round the edges of the Herbs for Healing field will provide plenty of food for thought. We will also venture up the 'Hairy Hedge', the old overgrown road to London. Visitors with their own specialist knowledge of hedgerow harvesting are also welcome to make this an information sharing walk. £10.00 |
