Brewing for biodiversity 🌱 🍾

How does a nanobrewery work? And what does it mean to put nature first? We met the team @oldtreebrewery and they showed us their brewing process from start to finish.

From foraging locally to labelling the finished product and the all important taste test, this video is a corker (😉) and you can see what we learnt via the link in our bio ⬆️

Apple Land is just 2 weeks way folks!!
One of our big themes is always agro-forestry and forest gardening that the orchard fruit abundance of the UK really encapsulates for us…

This year are thrilled to announce 📣 two things about this year that will make the event juicer for everyone involved.

1. We are providing a simple dinner on Thursday the 22nd this year so there are 7 hot meals (plus all breakfasts, teas and coffees included in the ticket 🎫 price ✔️)

2. After dinner for everyone on THURSDAY the 22nd @threepools_permaculturefarm we are over the moon 🌝 to announce that we’re hosting a directors screening with @elsakent_ the creator of the acclaimed film THE NUT FARMER OF GLASTONBURY @glastonburynutfarm

This will kick off after dinner and then @compost.tom will facilitate a discussion with Elsa and everyone interested to explore the big question that we know this wonderful film will evoke answers to - HOW CAN WE MAKE AGRO-FORESTRY (whole ecosystem farming with trees) MORE ADOPTABLE & WIDESPREAD IN THE UK?

If you share our dreams of a humans future with wayyy more trees 🌳 that enables biodiversity recover and young people to have jobs that help to restore instead of deplete nature and wildlife - then grab one of the the last Apple land tickets now and come and join us for this incredible film 🎥 premiere with Elsa 🙌

Hope to see you in the Sleeve at Three POOLS on Thursday the 22nd for the kick off of APPLE LAND 2026 💚

We’re all set up at the incredible @organicgrowersgathering with the @oldtreeevents team. A real honour to brew the drinks for this community and be celebrated as agro-ecological drinks makers to quench the thirst of the organic farmers in the UK !
Yesterday @compost.tom went on stage with Muji @uk.forestmedicine and delivered a short talk and drinks tasting called awaking a thirst for #agro-forestry. It was the beginning of a talk and workshop we want to develop to inspire people to stop buying mass-produced drinks and start revaluing what the land is offering us - the abundance of biodiversity that grows wherever peasants work!
This is the past and the future of our drinking culture..
Drink Forest Gardens!! 🍻💫🍻

We’re looking for up to three volunteer directors to help shape what The Soil Factory becomes next.

Our community compost station in Forest Row is turning local food waste into living compost and we’re bursting with ideas about where this could all go!

But first we need more people around the table at Soil Factory HQ to help make it happen. Could this be you?

You might bring experience with projects, people, money or telling a good story. Or you might be new to being a director. What matters is that the vision excites you and you’re willing to shape and be part of the team that delivers it.

Have a swipe, explore the roles via the link in our bio, and get in touch. You don’t need to know exactly where you fit yet.

And if someone potentially suitable comes to mind, please send them our way!

More than any bar at any old festival, checkout this transformation of space and time folks 🤩
BEFORE…. (Swipe left)
AFTER !! 😀

Massive thanks to our incredible @oldtreeevents team and volunteer for all their hard work setting up these spaces @in2wildfestival 💚

We brought the newly created Old Tree rickshaw bar 🛺 this year and collaborated with the incredible Muji of @uk.forestmedicine to run an additional bar and tea tent in the Enchanted Woods for the night time stage, as well as our main pitch here, at the end of the food corridor.

We also ran our own talks tent as a second room to the dome space and #treesontap #kombucha bar

Our founder @compost.tom and Muji gave a 2 hour talk and open space on Agro-forestry and Creating Resilience in British Food Chains @infinityfoodscooperative founder @peterjdeadman spoke on the windy Saturday afternoon about the pillars of health and the incredible @keivor.john of told the live story of community owned farming that is taking root in #sussex with @mylittlefarm.uk

We also did a DRINK THE FOREST drinks tasting on the Friday!! So much happened and special thanks to the amazing @beccamannfire for co-organising
And managing this ft. With us for several weeks before.

We had some good dancing, workshop and chilling time in between the bar service at this #festival that is local to us with lots of great humans.
A highlight was the rave in our space brought by @djlilxav on the Saturday night and the vibes that our new roaming rickshaw bar created.

We’ve provided all the drinks here for the @oldtreeevents bar service for over 5 years now and every year is an evolution…

Thanks for having us again Into the Wild community 🙌✨💚 next time we’d like to speak on the main stage please!! 😜
