© Groundswell A new agricultural event in Scotland for farmers and growers looking to explore the practice of regenerative farming systems has been added to this year’s farming calendar.

Specific relevance to Scotland
The one-day event of talks and sessions aims to share knowledge and inspire the uptake of regenerative farming.
It will feature leading practitioners, soil health specialists and farmer discussions, with specific relevance to Scotland.
The event is supported by pioneers of the “big sister” Groundswell Agricultural Festival, which is hosted annually in Hertfordshire.
Organisers hope it is the beginning of a growing network of farmers, growers and smallholders looking to understand, evolve and share ideas of sustainable food production systems.
The full programme is due to be announced early next month, but promises a balance of topics, including soil science, “farm to fork”, food health, agroforestry and practical farming tips.
The event is for anyone interested in food production and the environment.
