Rising Beltane:
May Day Celebrations.
Saturday 2nd & Sunday 3rd May
Join us to celebrate rising Beltane with Open Garden at 10 Trees, and a day of embodied nature connection at 10 Trees - including a Handpan Soundbath with Matt Laurie, Slow Flow Yoga with Holly Benson, Fireside Drum Circle and Wild Ground yoga walk with Kelly Dadd.
Dawn Chorus Hand Pan Sound Bath with Matt Laurie @ 10 Trees.
7.15am - 8.30am on Sunday 3rd May.
Join the early birds for a soundbath experience that brings together the beauty of the spring dawn chorus and the hypnotic sounds of handpan. 10 Trees is a haven for our feathered friends and the early morning is the most vibrant time to experience their song. An opportunity to pause, breathe, and reconnect - with yourself, with nature, and with the rising rhythm of the season.
Slow Flow Yoga with Holly Benson @ 10 Trees.
8.45am - 10.00am Sunday 3rd May
Join us for a one hour Slow Flow yoga class, held at 10 Trees community garden—a chance to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect with nature and yourself.
Celebrate the height of spring with a slow but energising 60-minute standing yoga flow, held outdoors on the grass in the beauty of the garden.
A yoga flow is a style of practice where movement and breath are linked together in a gentle, continuous flow. You’ll move smoothly from one posture to the next, creating a rhythm that feels almost like a moving meditation.
Fireside Drum Circle with Matt Laurie @ 10 Trees.
10.15am - 11.30am Sunday 3rd May
Join Matt around the warmth of the fire to honour the rising energy of Beltane and call in the season of renewal with rhythm, connection and shared intention.
Choose your sound and create uplifting beats with others round the fire - play African drums, Brazilian percussion or instruments made from junk and hear your co-created beats echo out to the hills.
Wild Ground Yoga Walk with Kelly Dadd @ 10 Trees.
11.45am - 1.00pm Sunday 22nd March
Join Kelly for a gentle, guided one-hour yoga walk, held at 10 Trees community garden - a chance to slow down, drop deeply into your body and connect with the earth.
This immersive experience weaves together mindful walking, dru yoga stretches, and forest bathing, inspired by the vast skies, abundant nature and expansive hills that make the garden such a special place of practice.
Open Garden @ 10 Trees.
10am-4pm on Saturday 2nd May
We’re opening the garden gate wide for the second of our Open Garden series this year - a day when everyone is invited to enjoy the garden in their own way and time.
Come discover the magic of 10 Trees - a mix of wild corners, tended beauty, wide open skies and heady vistas. Whether you’re a keen gardener, a local, or you’re just curious about the garden, come and spend time getting closer to nature.
You’re welcome to bring picnics and entertainment, and stay as long as you like whilst the garden is open. Bring your neighbours, friends and family too.
