WILDING

  • The Long Table Brimscombe Mills, Brimscombe Hill GL5 2QN (map)

Based on Isabella Tree’s best-selling book by the same title, Wilding tells the story of a young couple that bets on nature for the future of their failing, four-hundred-year-old estate. When Isabella and her husband inherited the estate to farm, they recognised how sick the land was.

The young couple battle entrenched tradition, and dare to place the fate of their farm in the hands of nature. Ripping down fences, they set the land back to the wild and entrust its recovery to a motley mix of animals both tame and wild. It is the beginning of a grand experiment that will become one of the most significant rewilding experiments in Europe.

Now it’s a place where mussel-diving pigs, storks and butterflies find sanctuary, and where thriving flora and a vast array of animals have taken back the land. This is a charming, hopeful and necessary story of ecological regeneration. Their grand re-wilding experiment reveals the untapped power of nature to rebound, and offers hope for conserving biodiversity the world over.
