Ground & Grow: An Invitation to Connect with Nature in the City

Unwind and connect in the city! Join our gentle nature & mindfulness session outside Derby Market Hall. No experience needed.
About this Event

Slow down, breathe, and connect with the earth right in the heart of the city. Whether you're looking to quiet a busy mind or get your hands a little dirty, this gentle session is for everyone. No experience is needed—just bring yourself!

We’ll be using the 5 Pathways to Wellbeing to guide our time together outside the Derby Market Hall:

• Connect: Meet and chat with friendly, like-minded people in your community.
• Be Active: Try your hand at some gentle community gardening (completely optional!).
• Learn: Discover the hidden world beneath our feet! Mark from Mark’s Wilder Gardens will be sharing his wonderful knowledge about soil health.
• Give: Help us care for our city landscape with the gentle option of weeding the flower beds.
• Take Notice: Unwind and ground yourself through a guided mindfulness and nature connection practice, led by a trainee forest bathing guide.

Everyone is welcome to this very first session. Come along, try something new, and leave feeling a little more rooted.

Tickets: £7.50

Option to join us for a drink at the Spirt Run afterwards.
