About This Event

Set within the Thatched Cottage, this experience draws inspiration from the gardens of Lanhydrock. Participants engage in the tactile process of crafting biodegradable newspaper pots to house a single seed. It is a quiet meditation on growth and the enduring cycle of nature.

Get hands-on in the Thatched Cottage every Saturday as you make a biodegradable newspaper pot before planting a seed to take home and watch grow.

Inspired by Lanhydrock's gardens, this simple activity is a great way for children and families to discover the joy of growing something from seed.

With different activities taking place throughout the week, there's always a reason to come back and play again.

Summer of Play activities are free (normal admission applies). Summer of Play is supported by Pokémon.
