I got a reply back from Martin.

Anyone got any thoughts?

Hi Darren
I haven't got enough work for 10 people to help with!
You are welcome to visit the garden by yourselves if you are passing this
way but I doubt I will have time to show you around. I am doing a public
tour on 7th September (minimum £3 per person charge) which you could join
but I need to know numbers in advance very soon as there aren't many places
left on it.
Weekend of 1st Sept, and 7th are not good times for you to show yourselves
around, otherwise any other day in the first 2 weeks of September is fine.
I have attached directions.
Regards
Martin

Hello Martin,

      I'm involved with a group organising a cycle tour that will be taking
in various forest garden sites in the south west.

      The tour will run in the first few weeks of September and we would like
to visit with you.

      We are keen to keep costs down, so as to avoid excluding people (some
participants are long term unemployed) but also happy to spend time working
on forest garden sites, I personally have 15 years experience working in
garden maintenance, landscaping and tree surgery, and others also have
similar long term experience.

      We have not got a confirmation on numbers but it is currently looking
like we could be up to 10 in number.

      I've pasted below some more information, what would be the
possibilities with you?

Best regards

Darren Hill

The group would spend some time cycling from site to site, learning and
sharing knowledge about forest gardens. The group could also spend time
working at different sites and swap plant materials between the different
sites it visits.

Participation in the tour would be free, the cyclists would camp on route.
Anyone could join for any part of the tour.

Forest garden sites could be established or prospective.  I guess it would
be nice if the cyclists could camp at the forest garden site or that they
would be fed/watered, especially if they spent time working on the site but
neither of these would be requirements.
