The Planting Festival returns for 2025
Family friendly community event, The Planting, is set to return from Friday, May 2 to Sunday, May 4, 2025, inviting attendees to reconnect with nature, each other, and the land through hands-on conservation efforts, insightful discussions, and live entertainment under the stars. More than just a festival, The Planting is a collaborative initiative aimed at fostering environmental stewardship while celebrating the spirit of community.
Mornings will begin with yoga sessions before volunteers roll up their sleeves for guided working bees focused on revegetation and conservation projects. Evenings will be filled with intimate performances of music and comedy, accompanied by delicious food and drinks. This year’s event will also feature a series of expert-led discussions on citizen science, regeneration, and practical sustainability techniques applicable to everyday life.
With attendance capped at 1,500, The Planting 2025 ensures a hands-on, immersive experience. Weekend passes, which include camping and car passes, are available now, along with limited Glamping Cabins and powered sites.
“This is an invitation to roll up your sleeves, dig in, and dance together under the stars,” Managing Director and Co-founder of Woodfordia, Amanda Jackes said. “It’s a chance to connect with nature, with knowledge, and with each other in a place that feels like home.”
