The landscape is greening and blossoming. So many medicinal herbs are resurfacing. There’s lots of wildlife activity and the dawn chorus is just fabulous!

We’ve been busy in the garden too, preparing new beds and raising seedlings in the polytunnel. We are really looking forward to a busy garden season ahead.

Ayurvedic Training School updates

We are looking forward to welcoming our new students who will start on October 3rd 2025. We are currently improving our student facilities by are adding 2 cabins, a wood fired sauna & a hot tub. We are also creating a nature trail and a covered outdoor social space for students to use on their breaks. Our early bird is available until May 31st 2025 and we still have a few places available.

Sadly, we are also getting ready to say goodbye to one group of lovely students. They are now approaching their final exam weekend! & ready to start on their own. They have been such a great bunch of students and will be missed. We wish them all every success in their Ayurvedic Practice.

Eco-Cabins

We are in the middle of some very big changes at the moment! Our two eco-cabins are being built and should be ready for guests by the end of the Summer. We have started to prepare the foundations for the cabins and create the nature path. The eco-cabins will be an excellent addition for our students, offering them affordable accommodation beside our Ayurvedic Training school.

Our Woodland

We have had a productive bare-root season for 2024/25. We managed to plant just over 200 trees (a mix of natives and some fruit trees). Thanks to Free Trees Ireland for donating 160 trees to us. We also relocated lots of self seeded willow and birch whips. This year we have started creating a small orchard. We are lucky to be located down the road from Irish Seed Savers. We bought some of their lovely heritage apple trees and they are located on the new nature trail.

Bealtaine Garden Festival

Another exciting project that we’ve been helping with is the Bealtaine Garden Festival. It is a celebration of Bealtaine, natural living, organic gardening & natural craft. It takes places on May 10th & 11th 2025. As part of the festival we will be hosting a talk by Thomas Poppe, an international bestselling author and speaker. Tickets are now available from our website
