Creepy Crafts - Family Thursday at Northern Roots

Step into the autumn woods for a fun-filled morning of seasonal crafts, spooky stories, and outdoor exploration.

Enjoy a spooky walk in our woodland and learn about the importance of autumn as you collect beautiful leaves and twigs along the way. Return to our Community Garden where you’ll make your very own witches’ broom, spiders web, floating candlestick, and ghoulish ghost using conkers.

Connect with nature, get creative, share your very best spooky stories!

Costumes are very welcome, but please dress for the weather and wear study shoes.
