Do you dare to go down to the woods today? Join us for an autumn celebration at Oak & Ash & Thorn, held in Voltaire’s Wood from 3pm to 9pm on Saturday 21 September, with the opportunity of continuing the fun with camping overnight.
21 September is the Devil’s Nutting Day. One of three Nutting Days in September, it was once commonly held that to gather nuts today would attract the attention of Old Nick himself. Dare to take part in a forage through the woods led by our expert forager. It may be a beech mast year. This will be followed by the chance to learn how to deer stalk (no guns, just tracking) and a whittling masterclass round the campfire as we settle in for some storytelling under the stars.
This is the perfect experience for those after some friend or family bonding time, those seeking a slower pace, and those wanting to get closer to nature.
Just run if you catch a whiff of sulphur…
This event is BYO alcohol. Non-alcoholic drinks, botanicals and mixers will be on offer.
This event is for ages 5+.
