Scything

This day-long course taught by Steve Tomlin is suitable for beginners wanting to learn how to scythe or those looking to refresh their skills. It will include:

• setting up the scythe to fit your body
• ergonomic mowing technique
• sharpening in the field
• peening the edge
• care and maintenance of your scythe.

All equipment is provided for the day and the course is also an ideal opportunity to buy a scythe kit containing everything you will need.

Full payment for each course is required when booking (please do contact us if this is a problem).  You can change the date or cancel your place up to 30 days before the course starts but there is a £25 charge. The full course fee is non-refundable after this time, however we will always try to fill the cancelled place. If we can fill your place, we are of course happy to transfer you to another course.

Please note there are no dogs allowed on site and while we give you full safety briefings all courses are attended at your own risk.
