This week, as part of our 'All Nature' series, we spotlight Belmont Estate’s Watercress Farm Rewilding Project—a groundbreaking initiative near Bristol dedicated to restoring nature, reconnecting communities, and inspiring lasting ecological and economic success. The Watercress Farm, a key part of Belmont's larger mission to regenerate land and build natural resilience, is rewilding a once-degraded landscape. This initiative is not just about combating biodiversity loss, pollution, and flood risks, but also about creating safe havens for wildlife and offering free access to thousands of community members. It's about bridging gaps between people and nature, and promoting learning, exploration, and engagement with our natural surroundings. This rewilding initiative is more than environmental restoration—it’s a community-driven transformation. Over 3000 children participate annually, fostering a deep connection with nature and promoting mental and physical well-being. By creating an ecosystem where biodiversity, conservation, and community thrive together, Watercress Farm is a blueprint for sustainable conservation practices.
