Want to join us on a tour of a pioneering Biodiverse Farm on Apr 27th?

Wakelyns Agroforestry is an oasis in a desert of conventional industrial agriculture. For 30 years it has been a beacon of hope showing how human beings can increase biodiversity and support ecological resilience in the process of producing delicious food, energy, fibres and building materials.

Created by the world renowned plant pathologist, plant breeder and pioneer of agroforestry Prof. Martin Wolfe, Wakelyns has led the way for the adoption of the integration of trees, crops and animals in farming systems. The biodiverse farming at Wakelyns has brought species back to Suffolk which haven’t been seen in generations, such as nesting turtle doves.

It has informed UK and EU government policy and inspired researchers, academics, farmers, bakers and plant breeders from across the world. BBC Good Food Award winners Hodmedods (2017) and Small Food Bakery (2018) sprung from the work at Wakelyns.

Prof. Wolfe was a founding trustee of Proposition and always emphasised the importance of visiting Wakelyns in person. Come and join us to see for yourselves the magic of how a farming system can make human beings a Keystone Species.

We will be going to Wakelyns together in a coach from London in the morning of the 27th Apr, there are still spaces left, completely free of charge.
