preston bissett nurseries and country shop

Buckingham

We are a family business consisting of a large retail garden nurseries and country shop, a professional garden design service and beautiful café in the heart of rural Buckinghamshire. Our journey first began in 1984 when Peter sold cuttings and potted-on seedlings outside the family farm and his uncle’s farm shop. In 1989 we moved to our existing location, and we haven’t stopped developing our ideas and improving and expanding our services since. Lately we have added a garden design studio with an amazing team of professional garden designers and built a beautiful Tipi café. It is now well over 30 years since we began and we are listed as one of the top 26 Garden Centres & Nurseries in the country, renowned for our incredible selection of plants and trees. The nursery is fully stocked all year round, and we have all the plants you need to create your whole garden through each season. We appreciate customers from far and wide (some travelling over 100 miles just to visit us,) and our Garden Club has over 14,000 members. We have a team of horticultural experts on the nurseries who are always on hand to help. We have a huge passion for plants and offer friendly expert advice. We can’t wait to welcome you to our Nursery and Country Shop.

clydesdale community initiatives

Lanark

Clydesdale Community Initiatives (CCI) was established in 2002 to support people, facing barriers to inclusion, to make a contribution to their community, through developing skills and gaining real work experience. We are grounded in and passionate about our asset based, person centred principles and believe that individuals should be valued for their interests, abilities and contribution to their community and not defined by their disability, illness or disadvantage. At CCI, 'everyone contributes, everyone gains'. Our award winning model empowers individuals to learn new skills, improve their health and wellbeing and most importantly see themselves (and be seen by others) as active members of their community. Since 2015 our home at Langloch Farm has evolved and developed to embrace and showcase the work of the Charity, with our Tea Room, Gift Shop and Nature Play Areas, opening to the public in 2019.

forest bathe

Forest of Dean

Shinrin-yoku (or forest bathing) means ‘bathing’ all the senses, whilst walking slowly in the forest. When taking in the forest atmosphere like this, the brain naturally switches off from the ‘sustained directed attention’ of life’s daily pressures. Shinrin-yoku is restorative, both mentally and physically, like a bath. Walking in the forest in this way is not like hiking in the woods, nor indeed does it involve collecting or recording information and images like a naturalist or for social media. Where does Shinrin-yoku come from? Shinrin-yoku (森林浴) originated in Japan. The term was coined by the Japanese Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries in 1982. Japan’s Forest Agency invested $4 million to study forest bathing and set up the ‘International Society of Nature and Forest Medicine’.

Have you ever wanted to learn how to make natural containers to store food? Birch Bark has been used for making many objects in times gone by, with its antibacterial properties and breathability helping foods to stay fresh. It can be used to boil water over an open camp fire, yet the natural oils within also make it an excellent tinder when dry! The flexibility of Birch Bark has made it attractive as a material to cover canoes with in the American North West.

elaine henderson ceramics

Hawick

After a career of teaching music in Scottish schools, I took up pottery at night classes and became hooked enough to complete a B.A . Hons in Ceramics at the iconic Glasgow School of Art. It was here that I made many connections with wonderful potters the world over, and received a brilliant education in this magical material. I aim to show my delight in ceramic form , texture and colour with great attention to detail and concern for the practical use of functional pieces. I also love to experiment with the expressive and imaginative possibilities of glaze in purely abstract work. From 2007 -2019 my husband and I lived in Stromness, in the Northern Isles of Orkney. Here we were drawn by an amazing landscape, constant reminders of its Neolithic past, and by its unique cultural and natural heritage. Grounded in agriculture and fishery, submitting to the limitations of island life and the often very challenging weather, there is a discipline in living here which corresponds to working with clay- one cannot control everything but must work with what is given. In 2019 we moved south to the Scottish Borders to be closer to family. From being surrounded by sea, we are now in the most landlocked area of Scotland and surrounded by trees! If you are interested in buying my work, want to commission a special piece, or are interested in lessons, please use my Contacts page. Studio visits can be made by appointment and I also teach individuals and small groups, so whether you are local or a visitor, perhaps we will meet one way or another!
