✨ Creativity is Calling This February at The Lovely Cow Shed 🐄🌿
February at Forty Acre Farm is full of fresh energy, creativity and connection. As the year gathers pace, The Lovely Cow Shed is buzzing with workshops that inspire, gatherings that nourish the soul, and celebrations centred around beautiful, honest food. We’re leaning into slow living, hand-crafted moments and meaningful time together — and we can’t wait to welcome you.✨ Ignite Your Imagination
This month is all about creativity and connection. Our February workshops invite you to breathe, unwind and try something new — no experience ever needed. From our Creative Cupcakes Workshop (a playful mixed-media evening complete with cake and coffee) to our Why Knot Macramé Plant Hanger Workshop, each session is designed to be relaxed, welcoming and joy-filled. Looking ahead, our popular Wire Hot Air Balloon Workshop and Botanical Casting Workshop are already creating excitement — perfect for anyone who loves handmade home décor and mindful making. Bring your curiosity — we’ll provide the inspiration (and the cake 🍰).🌿 Mother’s Day at The Lovely Cow Shed
We’re already preparing for a spectacular Mother’s Day Rustic Afternoon Tea — a generous country-style collection filled with comforting farmhouse favourites. Think freshly made finger sandwiches, homemade sausage rolls, scones with clotted cream and jam, delicate sweet treats and indulgent brownies. Children’s Rustic Tea Boxes are also available for smaller guests. The perfect way to treat Mum this March 🫖✨🍽️ Outside Catering – Reyt Good Fodder

Foraging at this time of year is a quiet act of hope — noticing the smallest signs of change and welcoming the promise of spring.Thank you for being part of The Lovely Cow Shed story — whether you’re joining a workshop, booking catering, staying in our Shepherd’s Huts or simply following along.
