Inspired by the Samhain themes of introspection, intention-setting and connection, the Killara Team have conjured up an afternoon to provide a chance to stop, pause and reflect, with crafts that will help you connect to nature and build community.

Beginning with a guided tasting experience, you will then learn about the beauty of natural dyes and inks that have been made using botanicals grown on-site. Using various methods, you will create your own hand-crafted stationery sets to bring the thoughtful and personal art of letter-writing back into your life.

Once you've created your own design, write yourself a letter, and they will post it to you at the end of the year. This is an opportunity to reflect on what has already come in 2026 and set your intentions for the rest of the year and manifest your dreams.

Optional Add On:
Cheese platter for an additional $30
