About this event
The Kin Club’s Summer Social is coming to Rougham Estate. It’s an evening designed for business owners who want to connect, take a breath and also enjoy themselves in good company.
This is for you if you’ve been looking for an excuse to slow down and celebrate how far you’ve come.
What will we be doing?
- Start with welcome drinks – a choice of matcha or iced coffee – and some gentle networking.
- Take part in an outdoor yoga session in the meadow led by Sarah from The Create Space Collective.
- Follow this by taking part in a guided breathwork session with Emma to help you reset and reconnect.
- Get creative with mocktail-making at the virgin mojito bar with professional bartender Ellie.
- Drop in for a mini tarot reading with Bjorn.
- Take time to celebrate your wins, big or small, business or personal.
Throughout the evening you can expect warm, welcoming company, meaningful conversations and hands-on experiences in the beautiful outdoor surroundings of Rougham Estate.
There’s no pressure and no agenda, just a genuinely good evening with like-minded people.
You’ll leave feeling lighter and more connected and reminded of just how much there is to celebrate.

Yes - Rougham Sunflowers are back for 2026! 🌻
The seeds have been drilled and the little plants are growing well in this lovely weather.
You’ll find all your favourites back again: the maze through the flowers, space to run and play, the big bale pyramid will be back, ready to be climbed on, lots of props for photo-ops and there will be the ever-popular face painting too.
We’ll have food, drink and ice cream available at the field and yes, you are welcome to bring your own picnic as well.
When will the sunflower fun start? Well, we’re watching the flowers very carefully. At the moment we think they will be bursting open around the end of July, but as you know, this could change. We’ll keep you updated here, and on our website, as to when the actual opening date will be.
As always, it will be free to park and free to enter. Just pay for any flowers you pick and any food or drink you want.
Once the field is open, we’ll be open every day until the flowers start fading, which is usually about 3 weeks after opening.
Well-behaved dogs will be welcome in the picnic area on a short lead and in the special dog-path through the sunflowers, but not in the main sunflower maze due to problems with fouling in previous years.
New for this year, we’ve got some special one-off events planned; more about those when we get closer to the time.
But where are the sunflowers this year? They have moved from north of the A14, Junction 45 (just east of Bury St Edmunds) to a field about the same driving distance south of the same junction. The old field needs a bit of a rest from growing the sunflowers and pumpkins for a while.
This reel includes some of our favourite memories from previous years.
Tell us - what are your favourite memories of the sunflowers? Show us your best pics!
And what are you most looking forward to? For us - we can’t wait to welcome you back!!
See you soon! 🌻🌻

How is it July already!?
June was an incredible month with the heatwave and days reaching record temperatures - the Estate was buzzing with life (and bees 😁) and al fresco dining.
Thank you all for supporting us through another great month and goodbye June!
Let’s see what July has in store for us…

Don’t like wasting food? This fermentation workshop is for you…
Fermentation is a natural, low-energy way to preserve seasonal produce. The friendly microbes turn sugars into delicious tangy, long-lasting foods, helping you save surplus veg and cut waste.
Great served as a condiment, in sandwiches or with a bit of cheese 😋
In this workshop you’ll learn to make kimchi, sauerkraut, pickles and more using fresh produce.
The session includes guided fermentation, tastings, safe-storage tips and take-home jars so you can keep fermenting at home.
Spaces are limited — details and tickets can be found on our website.
