Parts of our world are suffering from desertification and wildfires and even in the UK the symptoms of poor soil health appearing in the form of increased flood and drought events.  \nOur soils’ ability to sustain food production is likely to fail on a global scale within 60 years and all the while our population is growing rapidly.  \nIt seems like we’re getting our land management badly wrong.  \n[/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https://www.wilderculture.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/soil-fertility-analysis-as-agricultural-activity-PWTWUHT.jpg” _builder_version=”3.14″ /][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section][et_pb_section bb_built=”1″ admin_label=”Fresh Ingredients” _builder_version=”3.14″ background_color=”#caad71″ custom_padding=”25px|0px|33px|0px|false|false” prev_background_color=”#ffffff” next_background_color=”#91aba0″][et_pb_row custom_width_px=”1774px” custom_padding=”27px|0px|27px|0px” _builder_version=”3.12.1″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″][et_pb_divider color=”#c39d63″ divider_weight=”3px” _builder_version=”3.2″ max_width=”60px” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”||10px|” saved_tabs=”all” locked=”off” /][et_pb_text disabled_on=”on|on|off” _builder_version=”3.12.1″ text_font=”||||” text_text_color=”#1f1f1f” header_font=”Playfair Display||||” header_text_align=”center” header_text_color=”#1f1f1f” header_font_size=”48px” header_line_height=”1.3em” background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” module_alignment=”center”] \nWhat You’ll Learn:\n[/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.12.1″ text_font=”Montserrat||||” text_text_color=”#939393″ text_font_size=”17px” text_line_height=”1.8em” header_font=”||||” background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” text_orientation=”center” max_width=”700px” module_alignment=”center” animation_style=”slide” animation_direction=”top” animation_intensity_slide=”4%”] \nPeople who have no direct connection to land often feel they have no way of helping to influence land management. In fact\, everyone has an important part to play in saving our world.  \nLifestyle and eating choices are the main driver that can influence a dramatic change\, but to save it you must first understand it. This is where it gets confusing. We are often told that eating a vegan diet is the best way to help nature and that grazing livestock are destroying important habitats.  \nPlants and animals are intertwined in the ecosystem and cannot be separated from each other unless we produce our foods using intensive agricultural practices that harm the planet. \nIt’s certainly true that in many cases\, our subsidy systems along with public demand for cheap food has driven production to environmentally destructive levels. Livestock however are a tool\, it’s the management that matters. Under poor management they can be highly destructive\, but under good management they are a powerful tool to regenerative soils and increase biodiversity. \n  \n[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section][et_pb_section bb_built=”1″ admin_label=”Fresh Ingredients” _builder_version=”3.14″ background_color=”#91aba0″ custom_padding=”25px|0px|33px|0px|false|false” prev_background_color=”#caad71″ next_background_color=”#ffffff”][et_pb_row custom_width_px=”1774px” custom_padding=”27px|0px|27px|0px” _builder_version=”3.12.1″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″][et_pb_divider color=”#c39d63″ divider_weight=”3px” _builder_version=”3.2″ max_width=”60px” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”||10px|” saved_tabs=”all” locked=”off” /][et_pb_text disabled_on=”on|on|off” _builder_version=”3.12.1″ text_font=”||||” text_text_color=”#1f1f1f” header_font=”Playfair Display||||” header_text_align=”center” header_text_color=”#1f1f1f” header_font_size=”48px” header_line_height=”1.3em” background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” module_alignment=”center”] \nYou’ll learn the difference:\n[/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.12.1″ text_font=”Montserrat||||” text_text_color=”#939393″ text_font_size=”17px” text_line_height=”1.8em” header_font=”||||” background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” text_orientation=”center” max_width=”700px” module_alignment=”center” animation_style=”slide” animation_direction=”top” animation_intensity_slide=”4%”] \n  \nSo\, where better to learn about the sustainability of food – particularly animal food – than on the farm of the UK’s most popular shepherd?  \nYou will be welcomed to the farm by James Rebanks Author of the ‘Shepherd’s Life’ and some of his well known animals. You’ll learn what it takes to be a good livestock farmer and how James’ awareness of nature and its functions has shaped his current regenerative management.  \nCaroline will then take you on an educational journey looking at the problems with our global food system and the flaws in our reductionist approach to assessing the sustainability and climatic impact of our food.  \nThrough presentations in the farm classroom\, walks across the land and a series of practical demonstrations you will learn to look at food production more holistically.  \nThe day will round off with a shift in focus to the global to the local. We’ll explore why traditional diets were the healthiest and most sustainable diets of all\, and how this ancestral wisdom could inform what we eat today. \n[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section][et_pb_section bb_built=”1″ admin_label=”Fresh Ingredients” _builder_version=”3.14″ custom_padding=”25px|0px|0|0px|false|false” prev_background_color=”#91aba0″ next_background_color=”#000000″][et_pb_row custom_width_px=”1774px” custom_padding=”27px|0px|2px|0px|false|false” _builder_version=”3.12.1″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″][et_pb_divider color=”#c39d63″ divider_weight=”3px” _builder_version=”3.2″ max_width=”60px” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”||10px|” saved_tabs=”all” locked=”off” /][et_pb_text disabled_on=”on|on|off” _builder_version=”3.12.1″ text_font=”||||” text_text_color=”#1f1f1f” header_font=”Playfair Display||||” header_text_align=”center” header_text_color=”#1f1f1f” header_font_size=”48px” header_line_height=”1.3em” background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” module_alignment=”center”] \nHow This Can Help You:\n[/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.14″ text_font=”Montserrat||||” text_text_color=”#939393″ text_font_size=”17px” text_line_height=”1.8em” header_font=”||||” background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” text_orientation=”center” max_width=”700px” module_alignment=”center” animation_style=”slide” animation_direction=”top” animation_intensity_slide=”4%”] \nYou will leave feeling more able to nourish yourself in ways that will positively influence farming as well as your own health.

Our lands are degrading at an astonishing rate; for every tonne of food we produce our farming and land management methods are producing 10 tonnes of degrading soils. In some parts of the world our lands are turning to desert and in the wetter regions of the world our land is now so low in soil carbon that we are seeing dramatic drought and flood events. Our food contains a fraction of the nutrients it did 50 years ago but instead contains a wide range of toxins and anti-nutrients that are making us sick. Our farm animals are often reared inhumanely\, and our wildlife is disappearing before our eyes. Our soils’ ability to sustain food production is likely to fail on a global scale within 60 years and all the while our population is growing rapidly. If we don’t start making significant changes in the way we manage land our children have a bleak future. \n[/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https://www.wilderculture.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/soil-fertility-analysis-as-agricultural-activity-PWTWUHT.jpg” _builder_version=”3.14″]\n[/et_pb_image][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section][et_pb_section bb_built=”1″ admin_label=”Fresh Ingredients” _builder_version=”3.14″ custom_padding=”25px|0px|33px|0px|false|false” background_color=”#caad71″ prev_background_color=”#ffffff” next_background_color=”#ffffff”][et_pb_row custom_width_px=”1774px” custom_padding=”27px|0px|27px|0px” _builder_version=”3.12.1″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″][et_pb_divider color=”#c39d63″ divider_weight=”3px” _builder_version=”3.2″ max_width=”60px” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”||10px|” saved_tabs=”all” locked=”off”]\n[/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text disabled_on=”on|on|off” _builder_version=”3.12.1″ text_font=”||||” text_text_color=”#1f1f1f” header_font=”Playfair Display||||” header_text_align=”center” header_text_color=”#1f1f1f” header_font_size=”48px” header_line_height=”1.3em” background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” module_alignment=”center”] \nWhat You’ll Learn:\n[/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.12.1″ text_font=”Montserrat||||” text_text_color=”#939393″ text_font_size=”17px” text_line_height=”1.8em” header_font=”||||” background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” text_orientation=”center” max_width=”700px” module_alignment=”center” animation_style=”slide” animation_direction=”top” animation_intensity_slide=”4%”] \nPeople who have no direct connection to land often feel they have no way of helping to influence land management.

We are often told that eating a vegan diet is the best way to help nature\, but this simplistic conversation is misleading and isn’t informed by an understanding of how ecosystems function or how food production works. The ethos behind this rhetoric can lead us to become more not less disconnected from the land. Caroline will guide you on a wonder through the stunning lake district landscape and talk about how healthy land is tied to human health and wellbeing – everything from the nutrient content of our foods to the positive physical effects of touching and smelling soil improves hormone function\, our immune response and ability to deal with external stressors. For the largest part of humans 2-million-year existence we have been fully immersed in wild nature. In only the last couple of generations people have become disconnected from land and our lives have suffered as a result; high rates of disease\, depression and dysfunction are symptoms of feeling we no longer belong to ‘our environment.’ We simply cannot know how to best protect ‘our’ environment or properly nourish our well-being if we have lost the ability to understand the language of the land. \n[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section][et_pb_section bb_built=”1″ admin_label=”Fresh Ingredients” _builder_version=”3.14″ custom_padding=”25px|0px|0|0px|false|false” prev_background_color=”#caad71″ next_background_color=”#000000″][et_pb_row custom_width_px=”1774px” custom_padding=”27px|0px|2px|0px|false|false” _builder_version=”3.12.1″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″][et_pb_divider color=”#c39d63″ divider_weight=”3px” _builder_version=”3.2″ max_width=”60px” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”||10px|” saved_tabs=”all” locked=”off”]\n[/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text disabled_on=”on|on|off” _builder_version=”3.12.1″ text_font=”||||” text_text_color=”#1f1f1f” header_font=”Playfair Display||||” header_text_align=”center” header_text_color=”#1f1f1f” header_font_size=”48px” header_line_height=”1.3em” background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” module_alignment=”center”] \nHow This Can Help You:\n[/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.12.1″ text_font=”Montserrat||||” text_text_color=”#939393″ text_font_size=”17px” text_line_height=”1.8em” header_font=”||||” background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” text_orientation=”center” max_width=”700px” module_alignment=”center” animation_style=”slide” animation_direction=”top” animation_intensity_slide=”4%”] \nJoin me and other likeminded ‘Wildervores’ in this immersion in ecological and human restoration. We’ll delve – in an informal way – into the techniques we use in regenerative land management to rebuild our farm land and how this can help us rebuild our mental and physical health. Through a combination of practical demonstrations along our walk\, I’ll show you how to take lessons from the land that you can continue to use at home. You will leave feeling more able to nourish yourself in ways that will positively influence farming. You may even feel empowered to get involved in ecological restoration projects; be it tending a pot of salad and making compost in your backyard or starting a new career in land management. \n[/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https://www.wilderculture.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/donate.jpg” _builder_version=”3.14″]\n[/et_pb_image][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section][et_pb_section bb_built=”1″ admin_label=”Fresh Ingredients” _builder_version=”3.14″ custom_padding=”0|0px|1px|0px|false|false” prev_background_color=”#000000″ next_background_color=”#caad71″][et_pb_row custom_width_px=”1774px” custom_padding=”33px|0px|42px|0px|false|false” _builder_version=”3.14″ background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” background_color=”#91aba0″][et_pb_column type=”4_4″][et_pb_divider color=”#c39d63″ divider_weight=”3px” _builder_version=”3.2″ max_width=”60px” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”||10px|” saved_tabs=”all” locked=”off”]\n[/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text disabled_on=”on|on|off” _builder_version=”3.12.1″ text_font=”||||” text_text_color=”#1f1f1f” header_font=”Playfair Display||||” header_text_align=”center” header_text_color=”#1f1f1f” header_font_size=”48px” header_line_height=”1.3em” background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” module_alignment=”center”] \nPlease Note:\n[/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”3.12.1″ text_font=”Montserrat||||” text_text_color=”#939393″ text_font_size=”17px” text_line_height=”1.8em” header_font=”||||” background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” text_orientation=”center” max_width=”700px” module_alignment=”center” animation_style=”slide” animation_direction=”top” animation_intensity_slide=”4%”] \nThis walk is designed to accommodate all fitness levels. Within the 4 hours there will be plenty of stops to learn and discuss the land. However\, you must still be physically well enough to walk for up to 4 hours. If you are unsure about this please email us to discuss the route. We will not be stopping for an official lunch break although we do recommend bringing snacks and plenty of water. We can recommend pubs nearby for when you finish the walk at 1pm – the perfect lunch time! For this walk to run we need at least 5 people to book on\, we will confirm this 1 week in advance. Our first 5 walkers receive a 20% discount with the early bird ticket option.

SUMMARY:The 'Way of the Wildervore' Guided Walk. Lake District
DESCRIPTION:The ‘Way of the Wildervore’: A walk on the Wildside.\n  \nOur ‘The way of the wildervore’ walk is a day long walk exploring the intertwined connection between humans and the land. \nOur lands are degrading at an astonishing rate; for every tonne of food we produce our farming and land management methods are producing 10 tonnes of degrading soils. \nIn some parts of the world our lands are turning to desert and in the wetter regions of the world our land is now so low in soil carbon that we are seeing dramatic drought and flood events. Our food contains a fraction of the nutrients it did 50 years ago but instead contains a wide range of toxins and anti-nutrients that are making us sick. Our farm animals are often reared inhumanely\, and our wildlife is disappearing before our eyes. \nOur soils’ ability to sustain food production is likely to fail on a global scale within 60 years and all the while our population is growing rapidly. If we don’t start making significant changes in the way we manage land our children have a bleak future. \nPeople who have no direct connection to land often feel they have no way of helping to influence land management. In fact\, everyone has an important part to play in saving our world. Lifestyle and eating choices are the main driver that can influence a dramatic change\, but to save it you must first understand it. \nThis is where it gets confusing. We are often told that eating a vegan diet is the best way to help nature\, but this simplistic conversation is misleading and isn’t informed by an understanding of how ecosystems function or how food production works. The ethos behind this rhetoric can lead us to become more not less disconnected from the land. \nCaroline will guide you on a wonder through the stunning lake district landscape and talk about how healthy land is tied to human health and wellbeing – everything from the nutrient content of our foods to the positive physical effects of touching and smelling soil improves hormone function\, our immune response and ability to deal with external stressors. \nFor the largest part of humans 2-million-year existence we have been fully immersed in wild nature. In only the last couple of generations people have become disconnected from land and our lives have suffered as a result; high rates of disease\, depression and dysfunction are symptoms of feeling we no longer belong to ‘our environment.’ \nWe simply cannot know how to best protect ‘our’ environment or properly nourish our wellbeing if we have lost the ability to understand the language of the land. \nJoin me and other likeminded ‘Wildervores’ in this immersion in ecological and human restoration. We’ll delve – in an informal way – into the techniques we use in regenerative land management to rebuild our farm land and how this can help us rebuild our mental and physical health. \nThrough a combination of practical demonstrations along our walk\, I’ll show you how to take lessons from the land. \nYou will leave feeling more able to nourish yourself in ways that will positively influence farming. You may even feel empowered to get involved in ecological restoration projects; be it tending a pot of salad and making compost in your backyard or starting a new career in land management. \nWe will be walking most of the day so a good level of fitness will be required. The route will moderate in difficulty and there will be lot’s of stopping to talk so we can accommodate slower walkers. We will be calling at the Old Dungeon Ghyll at lunch time where you can buy a bar meal if you wish. Alternatively feel free to bring a packed lunch.  \n  \nWe need at least 5 people to go ahead with this walk and can confirm one week in advance. Please book your place below and we will take payment in cash on the day. \n£25 per person. Free for Keystone and Wildervore members. 10% discount for Wilderculture basic members. \n

SUMMARY:Roots of Nature - Guided Walk
DESCRIPTION:This is a must visit event for those interested in the future sustainability of the countryside\, pastoral\, low intensity farming systems and the reversing of global warming. \n​Join Caroline for breakfast at 0830hrs.  Explore the methodology behind the ancestral health movement\, and the theory that you can “eat yourself well” through food produced in the UK today. \n​After breakfast\, it’s off to 1\,500ft to discuss the effect of over-grazing on our uplands.  You will look at carbon sequestration\, flood and drought resilience.  As an avid follower of the work of world leading climate scientist & soil microbiologist Walter Jehne\, Caroline will demonstrate the capacity of soil and root systems to cool the planet and reverse climate change if we consider a different approach to farming and food production. \n​The group will then visit a local farm and discuss the life cycle of sheep\, cattle and pigs to better understand food labelling and the compromises that are being made to support intensive food production.  The morning activities conclude with a butchery demonstration to explain where different cuts of meat are taken and to demonstrate how traditional cuts of low cost meat can be a vital part of a family diet. \n​An alfresco lunch will be prepared by the group at 1330hrs.  Over lunch\, you will be joined by a guest speaker to discuss the relationship between nutrition and mental health. \n​After lunch\, it is off for a walk through ancient woodland to explore the ecosystems and the symbiotic relationships with the inhabitants.
