From The Planting Website: "Planning for 2021 - visit the website.

We’re imagining you might see yourselves sipping hot chai under dappled light, yarning around the village fires, hearing inquisitive children making their own villages, cooking something tantalising from local ingredients, finding your next creative passion, indulging in some artisan craft beers, recharging your inner eco-warrior through inspiring speakers and escaping with the music and dance of passionate artists.
