Today we built a bee home, we didn't put it up yet, but we definitely built it. We were given it by one of the grandparents who'd been given it free with something ages ago, and just hadn't got a clue where we could put it (being in rentals, and not being able to make … Continue reading 30 Days Wild – Day 6
So today, I don't really have a photo of what we got up to... because no one wants a photo of my muddy feet... We spent some time with our feet in mud, feeling connected. However, I can say that we also bought and built a climbing dome, which is going to not only be … Continue reading 30 Days Wild: Day 5

It's located just off centre in Kidderminster and as such would be walk-able (under a mile) from the train, or bus, station and is a fun place to meet friends for a picnic and walk.

Queenswood is located just off the A49 at Hope under Dinmore, between Hereford and Leominster. There's a paid car park (around £3 I believe) and a building with a small gift shop, cafe (was cash only, but in the process of being able to accept card payment) and toilet area. Just to the side of … Continue reading Review: Queenswood Country Park and Arboretum
