Learning the Good Life is just that. If you would like learn how to Plant a Willow Coppice, a Healing, Poison or Aromatherapy Garden, Weave a Frame Basket, Make a Rustic Ladder Back Chair, Keep Chickens or Bees, Make Bread with Wild Yeast, a Rag Rug or your own Sausages, join a Make do and Mend group, Swish or simply enjoy a lecture on the Medieval and Renaissance Garden or the Truth about Peonies this is the place to be.

Four years ago I started running workshops reflecting my country lifestyle and today the programme includes over 70 courses, workshops, demonstrations and lecture days embracing the kitchen, the garden, living sustainably, traditional rural crafts and skills, the arts and crafts and wellbeing.

A day at Home Farm House always involves excellent tuition as well as delicious food. Nestled into the Lincolnshire Wolds and sitting tranquilly in a lovely old, walled garden, Home Farm House plays host to course days. With big views and fresh air this is the perfect place to learn something new and forget the

rest of the world for a day or two. Depending on the workshop, you could find yourself in the vegetable garden, orchard or vineyard or the whitewashed kitchen.

Lunch is a welcome repast, meals echoing what's available in the garden and is accompanied by wine produced from the vineyard. I am adamant that a day spent Learning the Good Life will be fun and relaxing as well as instructive. Not only will you leave with a new skill or new knowledge you will feel refreshed and excited after a day of undivided attention to the subject, delicious treats and time out, far from the madding crowd.

Join our Diary updates for a monthly e-newsletter. This keeps you up to date with events,workshops, seasonal information and special monthly deals. There are half and full day workshops, demonstrations and lectures as well as weekend and monthly courses.

I look forward to having you here at Home Farm House in 2011.
