Courses 2010
Another great year
We have another fantastic year lined up for you! In the programme below you will find many of your favourite courses of previous years, such as vegetable growing, watercolour, willow sculpture and festive crafts. But we introduce a range of new ones, too, which will capture your imagination: ‘Planet Panic’, ‘Tai Chi’ and ‘Hedgerow Drinks and Tonic Wines’, to name but three. Browse now; book soon!
Great value
The Garden Station’s courses are really great days out – productive and enjoyable (our feedback forms show participants really loving them), and we’ve kept the prices the same as last year!
Arrange something special for yourself
Did you know that we can arrange something special for your group or party? For example, we can do a bread course for just 4 or 5, a lunch or supper with a gardening talk or craft activity for your WI, allotment group or works outing...the possibilities are many! And we can take all sorts of party bookings in our café, from birthdays to wedding parties. For more details, just get in touch. Enquiries for group visits, parties and bespoke courses are always welcome. Please contact us.

All day courses run from 10.45 to 4.30 unless otherwise stated. This timing is to coincide with the bus times from and to Hexham, and is part of our commitment to environmental responsibility.
