Harvest Time at the Healing Garden

As we move into the latter stages of Harvest Time, here at the Healing Garden we have much to celebrate.

We are coming to the end of our first full growing season in our new home at Arc Hall, Hoathly Hill.

It has been an exciting and busy summer, growing so many young plants and seeing the garden reveal itself to us through the abundance of summer.

We have been enjoying the bounty of our surroundings, both physically, with more apples than we can eat (and juice) on the trees, and also emotionally, with the blessings of sunshine, friendship, and the joyful gatherings of the many activities we have hosted.

It has also been a very special time for the Nature Cure Diploma Course and our students. We are so thrilled to have our first graduating cohort taking their final clinical exams this week, which are the culmination of three years of study. The commitment and enthusiasm shown by this hardworking group is coming to fruition, and we will be awarding our first Diplomas to the these students in the coming weeks.

They are an inspiration to the students following them into their second and third year studies, and of course to the new Year One Nature Cure group who started their journey in a flurry of learning and medicine making in September.
