Groundswell - Our essential Guide 2026

It's that time again - it's Groundswell, the key festival of the UK regenerative farming year - an event that's now been running for 10 glorious years. This is our essential guide to the festival's hot tickets.So who's with me? It's only bloomin' Alex Cherry, the Director of Groundswell and of Lannock Farm - and Sally-Ann Spence is here - an entomologist and farmer and Britain's Got Talent winner... We've got the fantastic Annie Landless, the Farm Manager at Ampney Brook Farm - and I'm thrilled to be sharing a screen and a microphone with Thomas Slattery, the ADOPT Programme Lead... ADOPT has very kindly agreed to sponsor not only this programme, but all of Farm Gate's content at Groundswell.
