Ep. 006: Restoring the Wild: Rewilding Britain with Prof Alastair Driver
Alastair talks with us about the history and vision of the charity, the challenges within the current government system (as well as the potential solutions) and some of the successes they’ve had in influencing policy. Alastair was also kind enough to share his reflections on our project and we describe our first step to ‘wilding’ our 80 acres.
Ep. 003: The Rising Tide of Climate (in)Security With Lt Gen Richard Nugee
In this episode, we discuss Tom's evolution to a 'reluctant eco-warrior' and co-founder of the Grange Project. We were then privileged to be joined by Lt Gen Richard Nugee who introduced us to the Climate Change and Sustainability Strategic Approach report he authored about the importance of a climate prepared defence force. We discuss the concerns an average British citizen should harbour about the report and make links between the ongoing cost of living crisis and narratives surrounding climate change.
Ep. 012: DIY Nature Reserve
Covering everything from the scientific theory of rewilding (diversity, disturbance and distribution!) to the art of tree planting on his very own nature reserve, the inspirational communicator that is Chris D'Agorne will leave you both enthused and resourced to enhance biodiversity in your own green space.

Ep. 005: Growing Change: Julia Hailes MBE on Peat, Wilding and Biodiversity
This episode's focal point is a really informative interview with Julia Hailes MBE, who emphasises the impact of individual consumer choice on driving change. We also discuss the concept of 'wilding' and how her 9 acre land holding has evolved from field to nature haven. We talk about management strategies for cultivating wildflower meadows, handling thistles, docks, and nettles, and managing grasslands. Finally, Julia introduces her 'Wilding Weekends' and offers some top tips for encouraging biodiversity in gardens.
Ep. 010: Landscape of Hope: Lynbreck Croft
Sharing the wisdom generated over recent years of wilder farming on a 150 acre croft in the Cairngorms, Lyn Cassell’s reflects on the importance of connection to the land, holistic living and the principles of wilder regenerative farming. We leave inspired and full of admiration for the pioneering work at Lynbreck Croft, we hope you do too?

Ep. 004: Biodiversity: The Silent Crisis with Prof Tom Crowther
In this episode Tom paints a vivid picture of biodiversity loss, aptly termed the 'silent crisis,' and sheds light on its intrinsic link to human existence and the human activities that are contributing to its depletion. The discussion then moves into the fantastic work of the Crowther Labs, including their innovative digital platform: Restor.
