As Kith heads into it’s next year we’re realising that more and more we’re learning at an incredible speed, building on the years of knowledge we now have. Behind the scenes there’s so much which goes on, we don’t tell many folks about it as it feels like the norm for us, but actually there’s so much for us to pass on to you too.

The day to day maintenance of a space like Kith is pretty epic, we’re constantly looking ahead to the seasons to come. Much of the preparation for spring happens in the autumn/winter before, for the garden, the larger space and even for structures like the Wander Yurt. Each season brings its own challenges but we’re blessed with being able to settle into the rhythms of the year like our ancestors did in this county. Enjoying seasonal crafts, recipes, stories and feeling the creative pull of each season.

At Home With Kith will bring you in to learn more about what we’re doing each week/month/season. We’ll share notes from us as we work, recipes we’re enjoying, crafts, musings from the garden and words from the community. Inspiration, ideas and things for you to try at home.
