This spring, we are delighted to re-open the gates of Earth Trust’s working farm and introduce visitors to our newest resident for a revival of our annual Lambing Festival.
In this episode, Verity talks to Paul Hill, Head of Environmental Land Management and Ian Nutt, Director of Programmes & Partnerships, about bringing visitors a little closer to local food and farming, and fostering a greater understanding of the complex interaction between nature and our own wellbeing.
Earth Trust's Lambing Festival runs from 25th – 26th March and 1st – 2nd April 2023. The festival - and this podcast - are part of Earth Trust's Spring to Life season. Join us as we notice and nurture the new beginnings emerging this season: earthtrust.org.uk/spring-to-life

The Earth Trust community are guardians of some extremely special and inspiring places in South Oxfordshire, rich in nature and heritage - including the iconic Wittenham Clumps, and community reserves in urban areas. We use these amazing places to engage and inspire people and to demonstrate nature-based solutions that we hope others will take and use elsewhere.
