The weekends are structured in such a way as to provide an opportunity to find out more about life in a community and what being a member of a community like Beech Hill Community Co-operative means and also for us to get to know you a little bit!
The weekends run from early on Friday evening to Sunday lunchtime. Friday evening is usually a time for settling in and a tour of the site.
Visitors are asked to join us on a workday on Saturday, which usually involves gardening or maintenance work. On Sunday morning we have an open relaxed Q and A about Beech Hill and community life.
The following meals are included:
- Friday: Supper
- Saturday: Breakfast, Lunch & Supper
- Sunday: Breakfast & Lunch
We have a shared vegetarian/vegan meal on the Friday evening, and Saturday lunchtime and evening. Other dietary requirements including gluten-free and vegan can be catered for. Visitors prepare their own breakfast and Sunday lunch, although all food is provided.
Visitors are asked to bring their own sleeping bags or duvets and towels. We provide blankets and pillows. If duvet covers and pillowcases etc are required, there is a charge of £3 per person for the weekend to cover laundry. Please bring cash to cover this.
