About this Event

Welcome to our Celebrating Winter Solstice- Seasonal Connections Workshop! Join us on Saturday 20th December 2025 at 1pm at the beautiful Grapes Hill Community Garden for a day marking the Winter Solstice. Come and connect with nature as we explore the significance of Winter Solstice and its impact on the changing seasons. Get crafty with some seasonal crafts and then share mindful moments together around a ceremonial fire. It is an excellent time for refections and setting intentions for the coming year. This in-person event is the perfect opportunity to immerse yourself in nature, connect with like-minded individuals, and deepen your understanding of the natural world.

Bring some food to share plus dress for the weather. Don't miss out on this unique workshop that celebrates the magic of the Winter Solstice!

More details

This is the fourth of a series of Seasonal Connections workshops with thanks to funding from the Love Norfolk Fund , managed by the Norfolk Community Foundation. The programme aims to help you live more seasonally and strengthen your connections with nature and your local community.

Each season brings its own set of joys and challenges, and we each experience the impact on our health and wellbeing differently. In our busy modern lives we don’t always notice the subtle shifts and have become disconnected from the ebb and flow of the seasons. To help better support our health and wellbeing, the garden will run a series of four free Seasonal Connections workshops aligned with the timings of the solstices and equinoxes to help us to better connect with the seasons, ourselves and our local community. Each half day workshop provides activities and celebrations which centre around the current season and will guide participants through specific ways to support their health and wellbeing. Each workshop will end with a seasonal celebration where we will share food and drink.
