Mother's Day & Easter at Brogdale

With Mother’s Day just around the corner, what will you be doing to treat Mum and/or Nan this year?

At Brogdale Collections, we have plenty of last-minute gift ideas for you to choose from, from annual passes to tours and rural courses. It isn’t too late to book a place on this Friday’s brand-new Dried Flower Wreath-making course. Begin by enjoying a foraging walk led by Holly around the Brogdale site, learning about what can and can’t be used in dried flower floristry. Go home with a beautiful handmade spring wreath using a combination of willow, foraged finds, and pre-dried pastel wildflowers. What a lovely gift experience for Mums, Nans, Aunties, or friends. Another great gift idea for Mothering Sunday is Orchard Passes. Valid for an entire year, take mum on a picturesque Sunday stroll around the orchards, spotting the pretty blossoms that are beginning to appear in our plum collection, hedgerows, and ornamental cherries. Better still why not buy Mum a Brogdale Collections gift voucher and let them spend the money exactly how they want?

Other rural course places and event tickets can also make fun memorable gifts.

Giving such gift experiences and having something to look forward to can increase feelings of optimism and motivation.

With an extra winter pruning course running on the 24^th of March, Easter weekend falling early this year (7^th, 8^th, 9^th April), and our popular half-day foraging courses with Michael White starting next month, you will feel spoilt for choice. Especially with our family Easter event set to be bigger and better than last year. Expect to see the Easter bunny meet baby farm animals, ride the miniature railway, and of course complete the Easter egg trail. Get your diaries out, get planning and booking, and give yourself or someone else something unique to wait for and be enthused about!
