Moor Understanding - Rivers & Moorland Festival (Friday Ticket)
A day of big ideas, enlivening conversations and enriching workshops - hosted by Rally for Nature, a Sustainable South Hams project.
Join Sustainable South Hams and Rally for Nature as we host Moor Understanding, the first day of Dartmoor Dynamic Landscape's Rivers and Moorlands Festival in Ivybridge.
Come along and listen to talks, watch short films, ask questions, share ideas, join workshops, meet your community, connect to nature and reflect on some big questions like:
What does a healthy river look like?
How can we speak up for nature?
What can we do to care for the places that care for us?
Together we will help build a shared understanding of Dartmoor, spark new connections and get inspired to take action for the landscape we love.
