Show Notes:
Spanning over 300 acres Walkers Reserve stretches across low lying coastal land and gradually rises inland to provide opportunity to regenerate a range of habitats.
The site is being transformed from a highly extractive process to a multifaceted project that offers huge potential for biodiversity and healing of both the land and community.
From recontouring and rewilding to establishing food forests, apiaries, dune and wetland restoration, developing an education and research institute and tackling the concerns of food security through involvement with the local community.
And they’re addressing all of this on a site based on sand with the coastal challenges of salt and winds.
Charlotte has experience from a range of different project across the globe and so she helps us to understand the general concepts of permaculture alongside some of the more specific learnings and approaches used at Walkers.

I take a very holistic view of the world and find enormous hope when we expand our thinking outwards and consider our issues as interconnected.
So it’s a huge delight for me to have the opportunity to speak with so many varied personalities here.
I hope you’ll enjoy learning along with me as my guests allow me to pick their brains on the diverse topics explored by this project!
