Join us for an interactive tour of 42 Acres and experience our regenerative land and food philosophy.
About this event
42 Acres is a regenerative estate, nature reserve and retreat center running on 100% renewable energy. Our vision is “Living in Harmony with Self, Nature and Others”
We aim to leave everything we touch in better shape than we found it. We use our deepest intuition, accumulated tools and shared knowledge to explore ways of living that nurture and regenerate our sacred world.
Our “soil to gut” food philosophy is designed as a blueprint for how we can grow, forage and eat food in a way that is nourishing for the body and kind to the planet. As stewards of the land, we work with the earth, leaving the planet healthier for generations to come.
Join us if you’re interested in regenerative farming, wild food, rewilding, agri-wilding. Or, if you’re exploring ways to take care of, and live in conversation with, our sacred world. Come and connect with the land, the food philosophy, the team and the vision of 42 Acres.
This tour will take you to:
– our bio-dynamic inspired market garden.
– our walled ornamental garden which is both beautiful and productive – planted with 100% edible plants.
– our micro, outdoor mushroom farm where we use ancient techniques to produce nutrient-dense medicinal and edible mushrooms, including cultivating our own native strains.
– our sacred bee garden – with both wild and locally-raised honey bees. We’re exploring 4 different bee-centered approaches to discover how to support healthier, more resilient bees.
– our “edible hedging” – = as part of our agri-wilding and food production work, we have planted over 3000 edible, perennial medicinals including sea buckthorn, hawthorn, elder, and rosehip.
– our nut trees – we’ve planted 500 including walnuts, chestnuts and hazelnuts.
– our Tiny Wild Kitchen where we process our produce using indigenous wisdom to extend life-span and draw out nutrient bioavailability.
We’ll also share insights into the deeper dive experiences that we offer, including foraging, fungi & wild mushroom cultivation; no-dig vegetable growing; bee experiences; agroforestry and artisan preserving of wild and cultivated foods and medicinals.
This event is free, but spaces are limited spaces so please book ASAP if you intend to join us. We look forward to meeting you!
