We are coming up to Banchory! We have done most of the work on the project with The Barn over the phone or on Zoom, which, like most people, we are tired of. It will be great to meet people in person and we are planning another visit for the Planting Day in April, where we are looking forward to introducing ourselves to The Far Orchard hosts. Every time we think into the future of the project, we imagine sharing creative activities, events and new ideas that have been suggested from within the Far Orchard community.
We feel more and more that arts projects like The Far Orchard that create a sense of shared endeavour with others are an important part of our future. And at the moment, during quite a dark period, projects that are about optimism, connecting to the natural world, growing and sharing and solving problems together seem to be the right sort of adventures to have.
