Activities in your local park
Autumn is a great time to explore your local park – join us to enjoy the colours, look out for mushrooms, and learn more about the nature of the changing season.
There are nature walks, our regular GreenFingers gardening groups, and activities and crafts for all ages in parks across Bournemouth, Christchurch, and Poole.
Festive Fun
As well as autumnal activities, we’re also starting to prepare for the festive season. Join us to learn how to pickle onions ready for your festive dinner table, or decorate a beautiful wreath made of natural materials for your front door.
Our wreath making sessions start in November with more dates in December to be announced soon, as well as other festive crafts.
Book your place today – use the Event Type filter to find all things festive.
There’s also lots going on in our cafes in local parks – from regular crafting or parent and carer groups, to events and activities, and seasonal specials to enjoy.
