GROUNDED Live
GROUNDED Festival is a cross between a farming conference and a food festival, held in a different farm location every year, so each festival is a unique, unmissable event celebrating local expertise and culture with an inspiring line up of speakers.
With multiple stages running concurrently, it combines science and technology with ancient wisdom, provides a respectful place for lively discussion, an audience as interesting as the speakers and an excellent menu of local food, drinks and music, all on a beautiful, regeneratively-managed farm.
Each year we record presentations and make them available, free for all, as a podcast called GROUNDED Live. We hope you enjoy the conversations.
