If you’re passionate about nature, conservation, and sustainable living, Wood Advent Farm is a place you’ll want to know about. Nestled in the heart of Somerset, this extraordinary farm, led by Kate and her family, is a true symbol of regeneration and community spirit. Let’s take a closer look at what makes Wood Advent Farm so special and the exciting Wild Spaces that have emerged from their commitment to the environment.
Regeneration at its Finest 🌿
Wood Advent Farm is not just another farm—it's a haven of biodiversity, sustainability, and pioneering conservation efforts. Under Kate’s guidance, the farm has been transformed into a flourishing landscape brimming with vibrant meadows, ancient woodlands, and thriving wildlife. One of the most remarkable projects is the planting of 55,000 broadleaf trees, creating a green legacy that will stand the test of time.
These conservation efforts have allowed Wood Advent Farm to become a refuge for wildlife, enhancing the natural habitat for countless species while contributing to the health of the ecosystem. This work reflects a larger movement towards regenerative farming, where the goal isn’t just to sustain but to rejuvenate the land. Kate and her family are at the forefront of this movement, making Wood Advent Farm a beacon of hope for what farming can achieve.
A Farm Steeped in History and Community
Beyond its environmental work, Wood Advent Farm is rich with history and a strong sense of community. As you wander through the landscape, you’ll discover remnants of the past, including several World War II bomb craters scattered across the property. These craters serve as a silent reminder of the farm’s connection to history, with one crater even doubling as a unique camping spot!
Adding to the farm’s historical intrigue is a Neolithic enclosure, a site that connects members with the deep past and the timelessness of the land. This combination of history, nature, and conservation makes Wood Advent Farm a truly special place where you can feel both grounded in the present and connected to the past.
Explore the Wild Spaces
Kate and her family have partnered with CampWild to open up two incredible new Wild Spaces on the farm, offering members the chance to immerse themselves in nature like never before.
The Cradle:
Located on the edge of the farm, The Cradle is a tranquil retreat surrounded by lush woodlands and panoramic views of the Somerset hills. This spot is perfect for anyone seeking peace and solitude. In spring, the area is awash with bluebells, creating a picturesque landscape that feels almost otherworldly. By summer, it transforms into a green oasis, ideal for relaxation and reflection.

The natural shelter of the crater, combined with its historical significance, makes camping here a one-of-a-kind experience.
