Season 2, Episode 2: Urban rewilding @ Plymouth What if you just leave it? Rewilding unwrapped
-
- Nature
This episode was recorded in September 2022 in Plymouth's Central Park. It is an interview with two employees of the City Council who are part of the ground-breaking urban rewilding project - Green Minds Plymouth https://greenmindsplymouth.com. Whatever your preconceptions about the idea of urban rewilding, I suggest that you listen to what Zoe and Andrew say before you jump to conclusions. It is not, nor could it be, another Knepp, Benloit or Wild Ken Hill, but it is a remarkable initiative looking at nature through a joined-up, city-wide lens, whilst engaging communities and tackling mental health issues at the same time. Plymouth are doing this with multiple partners, including the National Trust and the Arts University of Plymouth, and it was initially funded from EU funds (!!). Enjoy and if you like it you may wish to 'buy me a coffee' at buymeacoffee.com/samrose This work is all done for the love of it, and is thirsty going!
