The UK’s leading scythe instructor, Steve Tomlin, is delivering a one-day scything workshop at Pleck Meadow at Peel Park and the Coppice LNR.  Steve will show you how to:

  • set up the scythe to fit your body
  • how to scythe efficiently and safely
  • how to sharpen the scythe
  • how to peen the edge of the scythe
  • how to look after the scythe

No more ear defenders, visors, strimmer fumes or noise; just the sound of the birds and the swish of your blade!
