Post by THE LAND GARDENERS

Another BRILLIANT, horizon-expanding Groundswell Agriculture for THE LAND GARDENERS - celebrating the festival's 10th year, no less. This year, we kept coming back to one simple question: How do we feed our soils, both at scale and at home? From composting to agroforestry, biodynamics at scale to syntropic agriculture, bokashi to quorum sensing; every session focused on practical and FASCINATING ways to build healthier, more resilient soils. We wanted people to leave with solutions they could take home and put into practice immediately. And thanks to our extraordinary speakers, that's exactly what happened. The only problem? We needed a much bigger tent. Every talk was packed to beyond capacity. It was wonderful to see such enthusiasm for practical conversations about soil health and land stewardship. A wonderful problem to have. A huge, heartfelt thank you to every speaker, volunteer, supporter and member of The Land Gardeners team who made the Soil Medic Tent such an energetic and inspiring place last week. We simply couldn't have done it without you. And thank you, too, to the many people who have supported us along the way and came to join the conversations throughout the two days. In the meantime, we have some extraordinarily exciting news that we'll be sharing very soon. Head over to our Instagram for a glimpse of what's next in our ongoing quest to heal our soils, our plants and our planet. We can't wait to tell you more. Until next year...
