This book holds a collection of writings based around some of the most precious lessons we have learnt in our pursuit of a more whimsical life in nature.

All the materials used to make this book are upcycled; from the paper, to the front cover, the thread that they’re bound with and even the envelopes that we’ll post them to you in.

The books took 3 months to make (as long as our van conversion)! It’s a real labour of love and we can’t wait to send yours to you.

All of these books are entirely handmade by us using a domestic home printer, so please allow for the occasional printing error. Because we are also hand binding these as well as printing at home, we can only make 20 a day so please allow a couple weeks for your book to reach you- but we aim to post yours as soon as possible.
