BRONZE AGE Beaker People Burial Site
Quite by accident we recently found out that we have a Bronze Age Burial site in the Wildlife Haven at Court House. It was discovered in a small quarry in 1826. We have been told that it is around 4400 years old. Here is "Paul" our chairman, with a few learners from Able2Achieve, on a recent visit to Taunton Museum where we were shown the beaker and rams horn found in the grave.
Another 350 Trees Planted at Court House
On Tuesday 8th November, and Wednesday 7th December 2022, we planted, with the help of friends and volunteers from the local community, more than 300 small trees to form a hedgerow along the new fence along the side of the public footpath. Around 50 more trees were planted to increase the width of the central wood in the Wildlife Haven. Everyone had a wonderful time. If you'd like to come along and join in next time please email us at: geraniumtrust@gmail.com
'Tuesday Gardening Group'
We have now started a community gardening group at Court House. We meet on Tuesdays morning at Court House and Wildlife Haven. The idea is to get folk of all ages out into the fresh air gardening, keeping fit and making friends. There are 10 flower beds in Geoff's Meadow Memory Garden and we desperately need help to look after these together with other areas of the garden. In the autum and winter months there are trees and hedgerows to plant and maintain. So, if you are willing and able to help, please email us.
We also have groups of young people with learning differences coming several days each week to do gardening, bird watching and other nature studies in the surrounding fields that our now a Wildlife Haven.
If you are interested in joining this group, or helping us in any other way, please email: geraniumtrust@gmail.com
We organise a gay community support group and hold monthly roast dinners & coffee mornings. If you would like to come along, or know of someone who might, please email for details.
Our monthly Tea Parties, for those who spend too much time alone and may feel isolated, are held on the last Friday in every month from 2 - 4 pm at Court House, Stoford.
ALL are welcome! PLEASE email if you'd like more details: geraniumtrust@gmail.com

On Friday 19th and Saturday 20th of October, 2018, 10 young children, who had lost a mum or dad, came to Court Farm for their 2 day SAMSARA organised and run by St. Margaret's hospice. They played, they painted tote bags and face masks and made pizza. They had picnic lunches down in Geoff's meadow and made seed bombs that they then threw at targets spreading the seeds that will flower for years to come. We were unable to take photos of the children but I can assure you that they all left with big smiles on their faces.
