Fundraising success for the Big Grow Project!

To help mark our 50th anniversary in 2018 we are busy raising funds for The Big Grow, a major new project which will see the development of a highly productive educational garden where we will grow the majority of the fresh produce needed on site.  We have recently been very fortunate to have secured funding from the Beaulieu Beaufort Foundation, who are contributing nearly 50 % of the funds required to make this project a reality.

Now we have been selected by Tesco as one of three local beneficiaries in their "Bags of Help" tokens scheme during November and December.  If you shop in Tesco on the Waterside then please do support us by allocating your blue token to Minstead!

2017 Open Day

On Saturday 24th June we held our annual Open Day and, despite some mixed weather, were delighted to welcome several hundred people to Minstead Study Centre to enjoy a variety of activities.  Our visitors were able make felt, bake pizzas, go pond-dipping, listen to stories in the tepee, create some amazing works of art, try circle dancing, enjoy tea and cakes on the lawn and wander around the beautiful grounds
