Plas Newydd Farm Excursion
Canopy Time excursions are mostly monthly walks/rolls/rides on Plas Newydd Farm. Hosted by Abby Braithwaite and David Morgan (and some surprise guests), these adventures give us the chance to explore some of the most beautiful places on the farm, and provide a deeper opportunity to feel the rhythms of the land, observe the comings and goings of migratory birds, watch the bud and bloom of native and invasive plants, swat mosquitoes, and dodge raindrops!
Part nature journaling, part phenological record-keeping, these explorations are a great way to spend more time out on the land than some of our workshops allow.
Bring your journal, your sketchbook, your camera and your senses.
“If you pay attention, you can tell time by the forest canopy—twigs and seeds, branches and leaves marking seasons with color, fullness, sway.” – Abby Braithwaite, A Portrait of the Artist as a Crone Tree
Accessibility Note: This event takes place out on the land. We work to accommodate access however we can, and routinely customize the outing but please reach out if you have concerns so we can strategize together. You can email arts@pnfarm.com and we’ll take it from there.
About our teacher
Regular Canopy Time hosts are Abby Braithwaite, PN Farm Arts Initiator, and her husband David Morgan, 3rd generation manager of Plas Newydd Farm. They both love little more than sharing stories of this place with visitors. Occasionally other farm arts volunteers and/or guest presenters join as well.
