What’s good for soil, is good for us. Collectief Walden present 'Songs for a Shifting Soil' at Inside Out Dorset 2023.

Wild Woodbury - Rewilding Area

As you sit down on warm radiators heated by a glowing, wood-fired altar for our changing climate, Collectief Walden warms you with Songs for a Shifting Soil. Using word-for-word accounts of people who have acquainted themselves with Dorset’s soil in many different ways, we tell a story of reconnecting with the earth we live on.From Wednesday 20 – Sunday 24 September, Inside Out Dorset will wow audiences in Bere Regis, at Dorset Wildlife Trust’s Wild Woodbury site. This international outdoor arts festival will transform some of Dorset’s most remarkable locations.We don’t often consider it, but the soil beneath our feet is one of the key battlegrounds in the various ecological crises that we face. Healthy soil is the foundation of biodiversity and resilient ecosystems. Pretty much all of our food is directly dependent on our soil. So why do we find it such a tough matter to engage with?“I haven’t thought a lot about what’s underneath, but I’m beginning to get aware of that more and more. And it wasn’t in my education, you know. And you, when you think back to my child… university days, you know, nobody thought about that, this sort of thing at all.”WHERE? - Wild Woodbury, Dorset Wildlife Trust&#x27;s rewilding site, Bere Regis, BH20 7LLWHEN? -Friday 22 September - 11.30am and 2.30pmSaturday 23 September - 11.30am and 2.30pmSunday 24 September - 11.30am and 2.30pmWHAT? - PerformanceWHO? - Suitable for all agesPRICE? - FREEWe have an array of experiences available at Wild Woodbury during the festival.
