Scottish Tree Festival – Silent Space
July 1st, 2023 - October 31st, 2023Teasses have been collaborating with Silent Space to reserve an area of the gardens where people could experience silence and quiet. Our Millennium Wood is designed as a silent space during our opening, between 10:00 and 12:00. Please help us by respecting this Silent Space and avoiding the use of mobile phones. Within the Millennium Wood, Claire & Dylan’s garden will present a further opportunity for silence: sit on one of the a benches, enjoy the view and a little space for quiet reflection.
