Outdoor University of Cornish Hedging

Learn the ancient craft of Cornish hedging

Located at Kerdroya: The Cornish Landscape Labyrinth at Colliford Lake on Bodmin Moor, Golden Tree Productions is launching an extensive training programme in partnership with the Guild of Cornish Hedgers, giving people a unique opportunity to learn the ancient craft of hedging. This is also a chance to be part of the skilled team constructing Kerdroya: the world’s largest classical labyrinth, built entirely of traditional Cornish hedging.

There are 2, 5 and 10-day Lantra accredited training courses available, as well as the full Guild of Cornish Hedgers Advanced Certificate in Cornish Hedging. Opportunities will be a mix of paid places and funded opportunities which Golden Tree will identify in partnership with agencies such as Real Ideas Organisation and Department for Work & Pensions.

All courses will be run by a qualified, fully trained Guild of Cornish Hedgers professional with exceptional teaching ratios of 1:6 and 1:4.
