Logo with blue, green and brown lines

 

Tour of the Fenland SOIL Paludiculture Demonstration Site, Friday 19th July from 10am - 2.30pm GMT+1

As part of our Paludiculture Exploration Fund Work, Fenland SOIL is working with one of our Grower Partners to deliver a 3 ha commercial paludiculture site, aiming to understand whether paludiculture can work in an existing intensive veg farm.

We have a packed agenda planned for the day starting with the story of the project , followed by a farm tour from Martin Hammond of the Norfolk Farms site, finishing up with a tour of our 3 ha paludiculture trial site where you will be able to see the work we have been doing under the Paludiculture Exploration Fund.

This event is open to all those with an interest in sustainable farming in the Fens and paludiculture more broadly. We hope to see you there!

Please note that attendance to this event is only available by booking. We have a very strict limit on numbers so places must be booked to avoid disappointment. Book via Eventbrite here: Fenland SOIL Paludiculture Site Tour Tickets, Fri, Jul 19, 2024 at 10:00 AM | Eventbrite.
