Season 2, Episode 4: Ben Goldsmith @ his Somerset farm - rewilding nature and the soul What if you just leave it? Rewilding unwrapped

This episode was recorded on a very wet day at Ben Goldsmith's estate near Frome in Somerset. A financier by profession, Ben has been involved in rewilding for some time, and this interview goes some way towards explaining why this is and what has driven his passion for nature. He talks very fondly about his home and area, and about bringing nature back - including the appearance of wild beavers on his land. Ben has had personal tragedy, and the solace of nature, talked about in terms of biophilia, is very important to him - as it is for many people. He is very engaging and welcoming, and I think you will find it a very enjoyable conversation - even if you can clearly hear that I am tying to keep the microphone up with his fast stride as we head around the estate. Finally, I do these podcasts for the love of it so if you feel like treating me to say thanks, please buy me a coffee at buymeacoffee.com/samrose. Thanks for listening :)
