A lot can happen during a year of ‘rewilding’. At Ewhurst Park we are turning a 925-acre former hunting estate back to nature, and we have seen some incredible changes as a result of tactical land management, which often involves simply leaving nature to do its own thing with some gentle interventions.

Bring back pollinators
Published in
Why don’t insects splat onto our car windscreens anymore? Because insect populations are in decline. Most worryingly, we’re losing the pollinators we need for the food chain, including bees and butterflies.

The Wonder of the English Countryside
Published in
I grew up on a farm in rural Malaysia, in a landscape that is vibrantly productive and thrums with life all year round. We produced fruit and vegetables of all kinds, milk and eggs, we had pigs and cows. I always knew that one day I would like to settle in the countryside, in a place where my children may grow up immersed in nature.
The Heatwave in Hampshire
Published in
The recent heat wave really drove home for me just how important biodiversity and nature-based initiatives are in the fight against climate change. Projects like Ewhurst can help change the way people think about food and nature, and help to build a future that is in balance and aligned with the land.
In Conversation with: Derek Gow
Published in
Last week I had the pleasure of speaking with my friend Derek Gow. Derek was one of the first rewilders in the UK, known for his work reintroducing beavers, water voles, white storks and wildcats in the natural habitats at his farm in Devon. Derek has been an inspiration and a teacher to me as I embark on my own journey of regenerating nature.
