Bought two tickets yesterday £192. I’m still in tears. I hope it will be worth it.

Not sure I could cope with the lack of anonymity?

I've made my own and used for the last few events. It does help to see 'at-a-glance' when folk are TFFers but it should be optional.

I have actually popped it in the Diary though. A different slant on the job, is always of interest.
can't remember what it was called as it was 2019 when i was there , do remember the guy doing the food also ran the local shop/post office.
It's taken a bit of time, but we've now got a schedule of speakers up on the Groundswell website:
groundswellag.com
There will be some amendments, but nothing major (I hope). Like we've just heard George Monbiot will be there on the Wednesday, so we'll squeeze him in somewhere.
I hope those of you who've bought tickets already like the look of it...
Groundswell Agriculture Festival - Sessions

There's some really interesting speakers dotted about in there that I thought I'd flag up to whet your appetites.
Like Lennart Olsson from Lund University in Sweden. He's collaborating with the Land Institute in Kansas and helping to develop perennial wheat type crops. I think that they are looking for partners in the UK to help take this forward...if you know anyone in this line, I'd point them to this talk.
I'm looking forward to hearing what Ben Macdonald has to say about birds...his book Rebirding is a must read for anyone who is in the slightest bit twitchy (most of you, I hope) and now he's had some experience of regenerative agriculture, I'm gripped to find out more about any benefits to birds.
Seth Itzkan has been blowing the trumpet for grazing animals, properly managed, for many years through his Soil 4 Climate organisation. If anyone needs facts that show these benefits, this is the talk for you. There's also Diana Rodgers, author of Sacred Cow, presenting the case for (better) meat.
Dwayne Beck is a living legend, running the South Dakota Research Farm for 40 odd years and he is chock full of insights and ideas that help us all see where we should be going and gives us the wherewithal to go there. There's a mini Dwayne that still sits on my shoulder giving advice, nearly ten years after I last talked to him. He oozes wisdom.
More later...

Can you get George Monbiot to come to Ben Macdonald's talk so he can learn the importance of grazing animals and wooded pasture to save me asking GM why he doesn't know already?

Good bit of advertising in country life this week.
