We are delighted to be welcoming visitors to the Weleda biodynamic gardens in Ilkeston for guided tours and a special sneak peek behind the scenes.

Get closer to nature as you explore our living landscape, from medicinal plant beds bursting with purpose to species-rich meadows, productive crop fields and tranquil woodlands. Along the way, you’ll discover how biodiversity is woven throughout the site, how composting plays a vital role in building healthy, living soils, and how biodynamic principles guide everything we do – working in harmony with nature rather than against it.

Join us for a gentle wander, a deeper understanding of the plants that support wellbeing, and a chance to experience the beauty and balance of biodynamic gardening in action.

Let’s keep our fingers crossed for a warm and dry day!

And here is some useful info for your tour:
