Nature walks with Discover The Wild: Summer Nature Walk
Immerse yourself in the sounds and sights of summer! Take a walk through the woods and hedgerows and explore the insects, birds, flowers and fungi that may call Haigh Hall home for the summer. From bird visitors from Africa to our colourful summer flowers, we will amble around the park appreciating some wonderful species and learning about how they fit in to the ecosystem, how we identify them as well as appreciate their beauty. It is summer so expect lots of butterflies, but don't worry, even if it rains there is still lots to encounter and get hands on with!
Nature walks with Discover The Wild: Autumn Foraging
Come on our autumnal forage through Haigh to discover the wild and cultivated plants and the fascinating stories, mythology and folklore surrounding them. On our seasonal foraging walks we will get to grips with some of these plants, some of them edible, some poisonous. You will learn how to identify them, learn about their fascinating ecology, how they fit in the landscape and their edible and medicinal uses. Where possible we will get hands on with the plants and even try some in the field; this is a great way to learn more about the plants around the estate.
Woodland spa days
Mindful Events aim to provide an enjoyable and non-judgmental environment for anyone wishing to ease their minds through guided mindfulness exercises in nature. Each session lasts for two hours and includes a gentle walk practising the power of pause, a self-heating eye mask, 1:1 crown chakra healing treatment, group reiki, guided mindfulness meditation and a nature-inspired sound bath.
Sessions run between 11am to 1pm and 2pm to 4pm.
Nature walks with Discover The Wild: Fungi Walk
Explore Haigh through the many species of fungi on our walk, immersing ourselves in this fascinating world. Mushrooms, corals, puffballs, brackets and jellies are just some of the types of fungi we will hope to encounter on our fungal foray around the grounds. Fungi are enigmatic, appearing and disappearing quickly and on our walk we will hope to encounter lots of these species and learn more about how they work, how they spread, where they live and how we go about identifying them. We will dispel some of the myths that surround them as well as fascinate you with the truth.
