May Day Celebrations
Saturday 2nd & Sunday 3rd May
Join us to celebrate the height of spring, with Open Garden and family story-telling on Saturday, and a day of embodied nature connection on Sunday - including a Handpan Soundbath with Matt Laurie, Slow Flow Yoga with Holly Benson, a Fireside Drum Circle and Wild Ground yoga walk with Kelly Dadd.
Dawn Chorus Hand Pan Sound Bath with Matt Laurie.
7.15-8.30am 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.
8.45-10.00am on Sunday 3rd May
Join Holly for a 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.
Fireside Drum Circle with Matt Laurie.
10.15-11.30am on 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.
11.45am-1.00pm on Sunday 3rd May
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.
10am-4pm on Saturday 2nd May, FREE
We’re opening the garden gate wide for the May Day weekend! Open Garden is a day when everyone is warmly invited to enjoy the garden in their own way and time.
This time we’re holding a family storytelling and a bring-and-share picnic at 12 noon.
Come and discover the magic of 10 Trees, and stay as long as you like whilst the garden is open. Bring your neighbours, friends and family too.
