Myself and my daughter, Rachael, had a great time at Colman’s growing retreat. Great craic and great knowledge and we came away with two large trays of sown veggie seeds plus 2 pots of two tomato varieties. Great what’s app group so we can keep swapping advice and ideas. This is the second time we’ve been to a workshop run by Colman. We’re looking forward to the next one!

I can’t recommend Colman’s retreats highly enough, we had an absolutely amazing time! We had so much fun eating delicious food, learning about moving our bodies, and planting our own seeds to grow at home. At the end of the retreat, we came away with these trays of seeds. The last few weeks have been magical, watching the trays burst to life, and the broad beans grow at an insane rate, already needing separate pots and poles to climb! Paired with the information in Colman’s book, once we start harvesting our crops (we’ve a small garden so we got raised beds off Adverts for a tenner each and a big bag of soil from Tom Phibbs) we will be able to use our own organic crops in our meals and understand how each ingredient helps with everything from energy levels to gut health. Colman himself has a wonderful energy that makes you as excited about your own health and fitness as he is and his retreats are an incredible way to kickstart your own health and fitness journey.

I had a wonderful experience at this organic growing retreat. From the moment I arrived, the atmosphere was peaceful, welcoming, and deeply connected to nature. The retreat provided a perfect balance of learning, hands-on, and relaxation.The workshop on organic growing was informative.The setting itself was beautiful and calming, surrounded by greenery and fresh air. It felt like the perfect environment to slow down, reconnect with nature, and learn how to grow food.What made the retreat truly special was the sense of community. Everyone was supportive, curious, and eager to share ideas and experiences. I left feeling inspired, more confident in my growing skills, and motivated to apply these practices at home.I would highly recommend this retreat to anyone interested in organic gardening. It was an enriching and memorable experience.
