After years of running a failing farm in West Sussex, Isabella Tree and her husband Charlie Burrell decided to hand back control to nature. Slowly but surely, plants shot up, creatures crept in, and the landscape began to heal. The area now hums with life and is home to some of the rarest species in Britain, such as peregrine falcons, turtle doves and purple emperor butterflies. Free from human intervention and monocultures, the farm has become a safe haven for nature which self-corrects and self regulates. In this episode of the podcast they share their rewilding journey, dispel myths about the antagonism between farming and wilding, and share their hopes for the future of the movement with Hannah MacInnes.

At the turn of the millennium, Isabella Tree and her husband Charlie Burrell faced a crisis. They were £1.5 million in debt after spending 17 years trying to run a farm that simply wouldn't grow the crops they needed for it to be sustainable.With all their efforts to effect change and introduce diversification failing, they took a drastic decision: to return the farm to Nature — a decision which Isabella tells James Fisher all about on the Country Life Podcast.Listen to Country Life podcast on Apple PodcastsListen to Country Life podcast on SpotifyListen to Country Life podcast on Google PodcastsListen to Country Life podcast on AudibleRewilding might be a buzzword in the 2020s, but at the time was almost unheard of in Britain. Only a few projects on the Continent showed that there might be a potential alternative that could save the estate. Charlie and Isabella pushed ahead — and were staggered at how, within months, Nature began to recover and restore this heavy clay farmland that simply refused their attempts at agriculture.'Suddenly it felt like the land was breathing a sigh of relief, and everything was coming to live,' Isabella tells James Fisher on the Country Life Podcast. Even things which scientists had told them could take a century began happening within the first year, and they've never looked back.'We knew we were on to something,' she adds, 'and it's just got better and better.'Isabella went on to write a bestselling book about her experiences — a book which has now been turned into a documentary film, out in June 2024 (you can watch the trailer at the Country Life website).You can find out more about Isabella, Charlie and the Knepp Estate at knepp.co.uk Episode creditsHost: James FisherGuest: Isabella TreeProducer and Editor: Toby KeelMusic: JuliusH via PixabaySpecial thanks: Adam Wilbourn Hosted on Acast.

A non-profit in New Brunswick has come up with new ways to house and support their homeless population. We hear from founder of the Humanity Project in Moncton, NB. (Jamie Fitzpatrick with Charlie Burrell)

Charlie Burrell is the founder of the Humanity Project. Shawn Robicheau is one of about a dozen people living on the Humanity Project's farm in Little River, NB.

Homelessness is a reality all across the country, and Moncton, New Brunswick has been watching that population grow for more than a decade. The Humanity Project has built 21 “bunkhouses” on a nearby farm and they'll be giving people a home in time for Christmas. The Morning Show's Gavin Simms spoke with founder Charlie Burrell.

Tom Burns is the ranger and woodsman at Knepp estate in West Sussex, a pioneering rewilding project led by the estate's owners and conservationists Charlie Burrell and Isabella Tree. But growing up in the town of Crawley and passionate about rugby, Tom never expected that his life would lead him to a career where he's up at dawn with the birds, coppicing woodland and protecting ancient trees. Tom took me for a walk around Knepp - and we saw so much wildlife, including Exmoor ponies, stags, long-horn cattle and buzzards. It's a truly beautiful place filled with hope about nature and protecting our planet's biodiversity. Don't miss Tom's suggestions for the best places to see ancient trees at the end of the episode, as well as a minute of the sounds of nature from Knepp for a little bit of escapism in your busy day.

Isabella Tree is an award-winning author and travel writer who, together with her conservationist husband Charlie Burrell, has pioneered a rewilding project in West Sussex and turned an old family farm back into an environment from another era. Among the Longhorn Cattle, Exmoor Ponies and Tamworth Pigs that roam the landscape are Beavers, dozens of pairs of Nightingales, Lesser Spotted Woodpeckers, Peregrine Falcons, Turtle Doves and Storks. In fact, the first pair of Storks to nest in a British chimney since 1416 made their home in Isabella's house. In this podcast she explains what rewilding is, discusses its scalability and its role in the UK's future, engages with criticism, discusses how to eat meat sustainably and reveals plans for a cafe on site to nourish walkers, campers and glampers. Isabella's The Book Of Wilding is out now.

The world is undergoing a catastrophic biodiversity crisis, and the UK is one of the most nature-depleted countries in the world. The problems are big, but there are solutions. On this special episode of the show, host Rowan Hooper reports from the Knepp Estate in southern England, a large estate owned by Isabella Tree and Charlie Burrell, who have become pioneers in the rewilding movement. Rowan spent the night wild camping in the beaver enclosure and being serenaded by nightingales. He speaks with Isabella and Charlie about their new book, The Book of Wilding; to beaver reintroduction expert Derek Gow about the magic of this keystone species, and to ecologist Andy Hector of the University of Oxford.

After 17 years of trying to prop up their failing farm outside of London, Charlie Burrell and Isabella Tree were stressed, exhausted, and $1.7 million in debt. They decided to stop farming—no more plowing, planting, irrigating, chemicals. They gave away the farm—to nature. 20 years later, their land has one of the most important biodiversity hotspots in the UK. These 3500 acres teem with species, many of which are endangered or hadn't been seen in the UK for centuries. And the twist: Their land now generates more money than it ever did as a farm.Similar rewilding experiments are under way in 30 countries. They offer protection for nearby farms, corridors of safety for animals—and buffers against climate disasters for us.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We look at the latest book by Derek Gow. See more about the book on the Chelsea Green Publishing website here. Birds, Beasts and Bedlam Turning My Farm into an Ark for Lost Species reviewed We enjoyed Derek's last book about his exploits and those of others also in helping to reintroduce the beaver to the United Kingdom. We also found his podcast interview with us insightful and informative too. It makes sense that he has continued writing to help explain what he is trying to achieve and to reach a wider audience. He is passionate, informed and aware of the complexities of what he is trying to achieve. We when spoke to him last he mentioned that his next book was going to be about rewinding and wolves. It looks like that book is now the next book after this one. This one is a further attempt to join up the wider dots between the path to what he is doing now and the people who inspired him to follow this course. He explains how his childhood experiences inspired and drew him into animal conservation, with a few sad mishaps along the way. As the title refers to his own farm we felt at times there was less about this, about more about the colourful characters he had met along the way prior to creating the farm. This makes sense to some degree, but, at times, the narrative did seem to meander some distance from the core topic. At the same time it may help to inspire some readers, perhaps by illustrating that the path to being proactive and helpful to animals is never completely straight forward, nor obvious. His experiences with Gerard Durrell of course further illustrate this as Durrell changed his ideas and opinions through the course of his life in terms of the best practices for animal protection and conservation. This is a thoughtful, and thought provoking book. Well worth a read, especially, on autumnal nights. Check it out. More about the book Birds, Beasts and Bedlam recounts the adventures of farmer-turned-rewilder Derek Gow, who is saving Britain's much-loved but dangerously threatened species, from the water vole to beaver, wildcat to white stork, and tree frog to glow worm. Derek tells us all about the realities of rewilding; how he reared delicate roe deer and a sofa-loving wild boar piglet, moved a raging bison bull across the country, got bitten by a Scottish wildcat, returned honking skeins of graylag geese to the land and water that was once theirs, and restored the white stork to the Knepp Estate with Charlie Burrell and Isabella Tree. Derek's first book, Bringing Back the Beaver, was a riotously funny and subversive account of his single-handed reintroduction of the beaver in Britain. Birds, Beasts and Bedlam, a natural successor to Gerald Durrell's A Zoo in My Luggage, tells the story of Derek's rewilding journey and his work to save many more species by transforming his Devon farm into a wildlife breeding center. He now houses beavers, white storks, water voles, lynx, wildcats, and harvest mice, with the aim of releasing them into the wild one day. Tearing down fences literally and metaphorically, Derek Gow is the one person with the character and strength of will to defy authority, bend the rules—and save our wildlife. About Derek Gow Derek Gow is a farmer, nature conservationist and the author of Bringing Back the Beaver. Born in Dundee in 1965, he left school when he was 17 and worked in agriculture for five years. Inspired by the writing of Gerald Durrell, he jumped at the chance to manage a European wildlife park in central Scotland in the late 1990s before moving on to develop two nature centres in England. He now lives with his children, Maysie and Kyle, on a 300-acre farm on the Devon/Cornwall border, which he is in the process of rewilding. Derek has played a significant role in the reintroduction of the Eurasian beaver, the water vole and the white stork in England. He is currently working on a reintroduction project for the wildcat and a book on our lost wolves. Connect with the author Derek Gow'...

In this episode I am delighted to bring you an interview with the people who inspired me to get involved in rewilding, Isabella Tree and Charlie Burrell from the fantastic Knepp Estate in West Sussex. There is not a lot to say that has not already been said or written about this project, but this is my take on it, and Charlie and Issy are warm and welcoming, with some great answers to my questions. They are clearly so passionate about what they are doing, but also genuinely surprised at the success they have had. I have put up extensive photos, drone video and audio alongside some text at whatifyoujustleaveit.info and this is the first of three podcasts about Knepp. Whilst this approach is not for everyone or everywhere, it is one that has a wide appeal for marginal and more productive land throughout lowland England, and it this type of project can be widely supported, the change we can make to the UK's biodiversity can be immense. I hope you enjoy it and any comments and reviews very welcome. Thank you for listening.

Iconic classical and jazz bassist talks about creating a legacy through individual sound.

British conservationist Charlie Burrell decided to turn his farmland in southern England into a huge animal reserve. In a short space of time, this rewilding project known as Knepp Wildland has become a roaring success: several species that had all but disappeared from the region are now back. The project has encouraged others to undertake similar endeavours, such as in Bamff, near the Scottish Highlands. Our colleagues from France 2 report, with FRANCE 24's Wassim Cornet.

In this episode, Patrick is joined by Isabella Tree, an award-winning author and travel writer, who lives with her husband, the environmentalist Charlie Burrell, in the middle of a pioneering rewilding project in West Sussex.   During the conversation, Isabella explains why the Knepp experience challenges conventional ideas about our past and present landscape and points to the positive impact that such an approach can have on farming and nature.    "I see rewilding as the webbing that threads through the agricultural landscape", she explains. "It's a way of recovering the systems upon which farming depends".

Isabella Tree discussing the subject of her new book, Wilding: Returning Nature to Our Farm, from New York Review Books with an introduction by Eric Schlosser. For many years Isabella Tree and Charlie Burrell struggled to make a go as farmers, doing everything they could to make the heavy clay soils of their farm at Knepp in West Sussex as productive as possible, while rarely succeeding in making a profit. By 2000, facing bankruptcy, the couple decided they would try something new. They would hand their 3,500 acres, farmed for centuries, even millennia, back to nature. They would let it go wild. Isabella Tree is an award-winning author, travel writer, and manager of the the Knepp Wildland Project, together with her husband Charlie. She has contributed writing to National Geographic, Granta, The Sunday Times, and The Observer, and her articles have been chosen for The Best American Travel Writing and Reader’s Digest Today’s Best Non-Fiction. Tree is the author of several books, including The Living Goddess and The Bird Man. She lives in England. Author photo: Francesco Guidicini.

Two decades ago, Isabella Tree and Charlie Burrell turned their 3,500-acre farm in West Sussex, England, into a massive outdoor laboratory. They decided to cede control of their land to nature and watched it slowly grow wild again.

Two decades ago, Isabella Tree and Charlie Burrell turned their 3,500-acre farm in West Sussex, England, into a massive outdoor laboratory. They decided to cede control of their land to nature and watched it slowly grow wild again. Now, at what they call Knepp Wildland, herds of fallow deer, Exmoor ponies, and longhorn cows do battle with scrubland and tree branches, while Tamworth pigs rustle in the hedgerows and strengthen mycorrhizal networks in the soil. The result of this experiment is burgeoning biodiversity and resilience, as endangered species like turtledoves, nightingales, and rare butterflies inhabit a landscape unseen in England since the Middle Ages.

When author Isabella Tree and her husband, environmentalist Charlie Burrell, found themselves struggling to make a profit from the heavy clay soils of their West Sussex farm, they decided to try something new. They let it go wild. To enlighten us on the trials and outcomes of this bold plan, Tree joined us on Town Hall’s stage with excerpts from her new book Wilding – The Return of Nature to an English Farm. Tree recounted the questions she faced in the process of letting nature reclaim her 3,500 acre, centuries-tilled farmland. What form did the land have before human beings claimed it? What kinds of animals had been crucial to its ecology, and how could they be reintroduced? What would the neighbors think? Join Tree for a discussion of the challenges and successes of this bold mission to revive land and wildlife by letting nature take its course, reversing the cataclysmic declines in biodiversity that challenge Britain and the world. Isabella Tree is an award-winning travel writer who has authored five books including The Living Goddess, The Bird Man, and Islands In The Clouds. She writes for publications such as National Geographic, Granta, The Sunday Times and The Observer. Her articles have been selected for The Best American Travel Writing and Reader’s Digest Today’s Best Non-Fiction, and she was Overall Winner of the Travelex Travel Writer Awards. Recorded live in The Forum at Town Hall Seattle on September 26, 2019.

What happens when an intensively farmed estate is handed back to nature? In this episode of Informed Choice Radio, something a little different. I recently had the opportunity to speak to the award-winning nature and travel journalist Isabella Tree about the Knepp Experiment. Isabella, along with her husband, the environmentalist Charlie Burrell, are custodians of the 3,500 acre Knepp Castle Estate in West Sussex. She's author of the acclaimed book Wilding: The return of nature to a British farm. In Wilding, Isabella Tree tells the story of the ‘Knepp experiment’, a pioneering rewilding project in West Sussex, using free-roaming grazing animals to create new habitats for wildlife. Part gripping memoir, part fascinating account of the ecology of our countryside, Wilding is, above all, an inspiring story of hope. So how did this interview come about? A while ago, Nick went on a butterfly safari at Knepp. He often talks to his clients about it, and recently we purchased a copy of Wilding for a couple of clients. Nick then suggested we approach Isabella to ask if she would join us on the podcast. From a personal perspective, as chairman of the Knowle Park Trust, I was interested to learn more about the role of humans in encouraging and supporting wildlife to an area. There's a personal finance angle here too! As you'll hear in this episode, Issy and Charlie were massively in debt when they make the decision to re-wild Knepp. The transformation of their farm has created some interesting new revenue streams and employment opportunities too. Without further ado, here's my conversation with Isabella Tree, author of Wilding.

Planet Pod visits the 3,500 acres Knepp Estate in Sussex - one of the largest rewilding projects in lowland Europe - and encounters herds of longhorn cattle, Tamworth pigs, cranes and other fauna and flora as the driving forces of habitat regeneration. We walk and talk with safari guide Tom Forward and then sit down to chat with Isabella Tree who, along with husband Charlie Burrell, is the co-owner and inspiration behind this amazing wilding project.

Helen Mark travels to Sussex to explore the wilderness at Knepp Castle Estate. Isabella Tree and her husband Charlie Burrell have turned their estate which was once intensively farmed over to a rewilding project since 2001. Isabella takes Helen to her favourite part of the landscape which has undergone the greatest change since they started restoring the land back to it's natural and uncultivated state. Helen also goes bird ringing and cattle mustering on the state, now home to long horns, free roaming deer, pigs and Exmoor ponies. She meets a couple who retired and moved to the South Downs for an idyllic country life only to discover the view from their house is more than they bargained for. So is re-wilding the estate really working and should we be doing it? The producer is Peminder Khatkar.
