A nature immersion with me, Jane, The Nettle Lady, Founder of Nettle Revolution, and joint collaborator of Golden Zones CIC with Dr.Helen Angel.
Have you ever walked through nature without really seeing it?
In today's fast-paced world, we often hurry from one destination to the next, missing the quiet beauty that surrounds us. My workshop invites you to do the opposite.
For two gentle hours, I'll guide you through the beautiful Upton Towans Nature Reserve on the Cornish coast, where together we'll rediscover the forgotten art of slowing down.
This isn't simply a walk. It's an invitation to awaken your senses, whatever the season you choose to visit. Every walk is different because nature is forever changing.
Together, we'll notice the extraordinary textures of bark, the architecture of seed heads, the colours hidden within leaves, the intricate fibres of plants, and the tiny details that most people pass by without ever seeing.
As the founder of Nettle Revolution, my passion is helping people reconnect with nature through creativity, wellbeing, and the remarkable story of the humble stinging nettle. What many dismiss as a weed is, in reality, one of Britain's greatest natural treasures.
Our experience begins with a cup of homemade herbal tea before we venture into the landscape together. Along the way, I'll share stories about wild plants, sustainable fibres, and how nature has inspired my own journey as a textile designer, educator, and lifelong advocate for the healing power of nature.
Back in my studio, you'll discover natural fibres, handcrafted textiles, and creative techniques inspired by the landscape we've just explored. Whether you're an artist, photographer, gardener, maker, or simply someone longing to reconnect with nature, you'll leave with fresh inspiration and a renewed sense of calm.
This experience isn't about creating perfect art. It's about creating space. Space to breathe. Space to notice. Space to remember that we, too, are part of nature.
Many guests tell me they leave feeling calmer, lighter, and more connected than when they arrived.
If you've been searching for an experience that nourishes both creativity and wellbeing, I'd love to welcome you.
During the workshop, you'll enjoy:
-
A guided mindful walk through Upton Towans Nature Reserve.
-
Homemade herbal tea.
-
Nature observation and gentle foraging techniques.
-
Inspiration from sustainable textiles and natural fibres.
-
Creative exploration in my Nettle Revolution studio.
-
Simple practices you can take home to enrich everyday life.
Whether you're visiting Cornwall or live locally, this is an opportunity to experience the landscape in a completely different way.
Nature has so much to teach us if we simply pause long enough to listen.
I hope you'll join me.

The greatest thing you'll discover isn't the nettle. It's the part of yourself that nature has been quietly waiting to reawaken.
