♥ Peasticks ♥

We finally found a local source for hazel peasticks. A big THANK YOU to the Epping Forest Centres Officer: Heritage and Lifelong Learning who arranged for them to be bundled for us to pick up from the View for a donation. We're plucking up the courage to ask if they cut rods for bean poles too.

If you haven't walked Epping Forest, or visted the Queen Elizabeth Hunting Lodge or the High Beach visitor centre - what's keeping you?

#EppingForest

A short walk today to visit the coppard beech at the lost pond in Epping Forest.

The dog violet were out, underscoring the quiet stillness.

Boxing Day Walk

Epping Forest felt still and close today. The trees transpired in warm misty breaths down the back of our necks as we passed by and every so often when we were directly beneath their boughs they would shudder and sprinkle us with drops of thawing hoar frost.
