SOW TO SEW Community Flax Growing

This is the sowing stage of our annual project which involves gardening activities such as raking, planting of the seeds and watering.

This activity is suitable for all abilities. We welcome anyone who would like to learn about the traditional methods of flax processing.

An introductory demonstration about how to grow flax and turn it into linen will be given and participants will have the opportunity to extract the seeds for sowing from plants harvested last year.
More locations are taking part in 2026 season. Please check other event pages for details and how to participate.
Further free workshops relating to flax processing, the harvest and linen yarn application in textile art will take place during the summer, in the autumn and the winter season. Details will be posted on our website www.ariadnesthreadgroup.org
