Garden Organic Masters Conference 2016


Because I am a Three Counties Traditional Orchards Champion and  now a Worcestershire Master Composter ( yes I managed to get back to being one!)

I am again one of the family of Garden Organic volunteers :)




So yesterday I drove to Ryton to attend the annual conference - always a highlight of my year :)


My first workshop was on natural dyeing



I made this :)


I feel another craft interest blooming :)


Drying my dyed silk hankies on the marquee bunting line


After an excellent lunch we had more talks, another workshop choice ( I did composting creatures :) )


Then tea and cake!


An excellent day, spent with lots of friends as usual :)
