Foraging Fridays: A Seasonal Creative Open-Workshop

An end-of-week creative escape where we forage, craft, cook, and connect around natures found treasures.



4 hours

Class size 1 to 8 (public classes), 5 to 15

  £34 (£150 per class surcharge applies for private classes)

Fridays are made for slowing down a little, and I’d love for you to join me for something a bit different. Foraging Fridays: A Seasonal Creative Open-Workshop is about stepping away from the week’s busyness and letting nature guide our creations.
When the weather is kind, we’ll take a gentle walk on the common to see what the season has to offer, gathering fruits, flowers, vines, and foliage. Whatever we find, we’ll bring it back to the workshop and see where it takes us. If you’d rather skip the walk, or can't get here in time, you’re welcome to meet us at 6:30 back at the workshop...I’ll make sure there’s plenty of goodies gathered for you too.
From 6:30 back at the workshop, the evening flows quite loosely where each group can choose your own creative path. From simmering jam to preserving pickles, or botanical printing to wreath-making...all things are possible.
At the end of the evening and if the weather is kind), you are welcome to gather round the fire pit to round off the relaxing evening.
If you’d like to get a feel for the kinds of projects we might make, have a peek at my other workshop listings — you’ll see how varied and seasonal they are. Each week brings something new.
Mostly, I hope this gives you a little space to pause, make with your hands, and enjoy being part of a creative gathering.
Refreshments and some light nibbles will be available throughout.
A quick note: Our home is shared with two friendly (and sometimes diva-like) dogs. They’ll happily join us on the forage and then potter about while we’re in the workshop. They’re likely to get a bit bored once we’re busy making, but if you sit by the fire pit later, you might just find one climbs into your lap for a cuddle.

Recent reviews of Foraging Fridays: A Seasonal Creative Open-Workshop

  • 5/5 from Alison Kichenside, attended Sep 2026: Kate is so friendly and knowledgeable showing us where there were apple trees, sloes, rosehips, burdock etc. The walk was lovely. Between our group we picked willow branches and made a basket, we picked soft grass and made homemade paper and we both expressed an interest in learning crocheting basics which Kate was happy to show us. The time went so quickly and it was the perfect way to spend a Friday night. Will be back soon. Highly recommend.
  • 5/5 from Evan Hobson, attended Aug 2026: Amazing workshop, learnt so much, had a really relaxing time, ate delicious food, and the space was beautiful. Most importantly discovered how much there is to forage to eat and create with in suburban London. Perfect way to spend a Friday evening
  • 5/5 from Arthur Spain, attended Aug 2026: We had an amazing time!!! Kate is full of information and we were presented with lots of different things to make.
  • 5/5 from Molly Widlund, attended Aug 2026: The class was amazing! Kate was very knowledgeable, friendly, and welcoming and we so enjoyed learning about foraging. The walk through the commons was beautiful and we had so much fun in the workshop after making jams and using flowers and leaves to create prints. I would highly recommend this workshop, thank you kindly for the lovely evening!
  • 5/5 from Lillian Chang, attended Jul 2026: I LOVED IT! It’s a simple, relaxed workshop following Kate into Mitcham Commons to forage berries and flowers, and then walking back into Kate’s house for making botanical print tote bag and or other flowers related craft, whichever you fancy. We happened to have enough berries and even made a jar of jam out of the berries we picked. Kate is so lovely, so warm, friendly and kind. I had the best time. Will recommend it 100%!
  • 5/5 from Hannah Williams, attended Jun 2026: We had a wonderful time, thank you for having us Kate. We explored the Common, made botanical prints, paper and began weaving baskets while listening to jazz and the Indigo Girls. What a perfect evening.
  • 5/5 from Nicola Fletcher, attended Oct 2025: Kate was a wonderfully generous and kind host, it was one of the best evenings I’ve had in ages. I went to the class with a few friends and we had a blast. I won’t ruin any of the surprises but if you need something wholesome and creative in your life, do one of Kate’s classes.
  • 5/5 from Marybelle Cameron-Pack, attended Sep 2025: Lovely class! Kate was extremely knowledgeable about her crafts and had a variety of them available to us. She was very responsive before the class, asking what kind of crafts we wanted to do beforehand to prep for us. She even accommodated my dietary restrictions. I will be keeping her in mind for future activities as I think getting a group of friends together and working with kate is an ideal activity for the price! Thank you again for everything!

At Correll Club, we create relaxed, welcoming spaces where you can make things with your hands, try something new, and spend time around others doing the same.
Our workshops are designed to feel calm, accessible and genuinely enjoyable — whether you’re crafting natural body care, learning simple repair skills, experimenting with seasonal materials or just taking a bit of time out to create something for yourself.
You don’t need experience, and you don’t need to be “creative”. We’ll guide you through everything, using thoughtfully chosen materials and simple techniques that you can take away and use again at home.
At the heart of it, Correll Club is about more than the thing you make. It’s about slowing down, learning practical skills, and sharing space with people in a way that feels natural and easy.
Come along, try something different, and leave with something you’ve made — and a little more than you expected.
