As the seasons change, Lindengate’s six-acre wellbeing gardens and nature reserve offer a welcoming space to connect with nature, enjoy seasonal activities and support mental wellbeing.

This November and December, visitors can embrace the festive spirit with Lindengate’s popular Christmas wreath-making workshops. Taking place on 27 and 28 November and 4 December, from 10am to 1pm, these relaxing sessions offer the chance to create a beautiful wreath using natural greenery and traditional techniques. Tickets cost £60 per person, including materials and festive refreshments.

Looking ahead to January, Lindengate’s nine-week Wellbeing & Nature Course begins on 13 January 2027. Designed for adults experiencing stress, anxiety, low mood or social isolation, the programme combines gardening, conservation and creative activities to help build confidence and improve wellbeing. Fully funded places are available for eligible participants.
Winter is also the perfect time for tree planting. Lindengate is helping conserve Britain’s rare native Black Poplar, with locally grown trees available to purchase through Habitat Aid.

Whether joining a workshop, volunteering or simply enjoying the gardens, Lindengate offers opportunities to reconnect with nature and others.
