A great day with inspirational people

Celebrate with us…we just welcomed our 500th guest!

Thank you KIND CORNWALL for your generous support this week and throughout the last six+ years!
This was a very special ‘Walk & Talk’ group of 17 survivors and bereaved, all on their first respite visit, together with three wonderful support workers from the Dedicated Services in Kensington.
More to come on our sunny (and sometimes soggy) 'Walk & Talk' adventures by the sea…we’ll be posting a little on our time together and above all the kindness of so many businesses, organisations and individuals who made it possible.
Watch this space!

Wildlife wonders, Atlantic grey seals on today's coastal exploration. This time of year we can often see grey seals hauled out on land resting from the stormy seas and looking after this seasons pups. Bulls can be up to 300kg, it's always thrilling to see a truly wild large carnivore in it's natural environment, some looking decidedly pleased with themselves though!

It’s and we’re celebrating the rare and mighty Cornish chough- once extinct in England, these have become a conservation success here in Cornwall. We are often lucky enough to spot them on Explore In Cornwall coastal explorations out on the cliffs so why not book a walk for a good chance to catch sight of these aerial acrobats!

The sun's been in for the last couple of days here in Cornwall but there's still plenty of natural spectacles on our daily walks. Remember bluebells are poisonous though and if you pick them then you'll be "piskie led" in the woods until someone else comes and finds you or you have a cool guide with you!!

Last nights "pink moon" reassuringly watching over us high in the skies over Cornwall promising growth and recovery, still social distancing as it was only 40,000km closer than usual. Named the "pink moon" by Native Americans due to the colour of a native north American plant, wild ground phlox, that flowers early distancing we will be back doing Sunset Trail walks as soon as we can to explore our evening landscapes and nature.

Today's Covid-19 natural therapy included some of our Spring flowers enjoying the sunshine. Alexanders - the first umbellifer to flower, brought here by the Romans. The young stems make an excellent alternative to celery and you can also cook it the same way you would Asparagus. Dog violet, food plant to the caterpillars of some our important fritillary butterflies. Also Herb Robert considered the vegetable counterpart of the Robin and will bring good luck if you look after it - don't we all need some!! Stay safe everybody and we will have a new walking video in the next few days.
