The Plum Village Rewilding Project
In 2020 Plum Village, Upper Hamlet became the guardians of 20 hectares of old degraded farmland that are now rewilding and regenerating. The Plum Village Community wished to take meaningful action on home soil in the face of the Climate and Nature Emergencies. The Plum Village Community hopes that retreat guests and residents who spend time on this land can continue their journey of healing and transformation as they witness the healing and transformation of this land as it returns to oak forest. The rewilding project is supported by the Happy Farm project in Plum Village, Upper Hamlet.
In this film, Mick McEvoy (Happy Farm Manager and Retreat Facilitator) shares about the rewilding project and how welcoming Earth as teacher, Earth as mentor reinforces the teachings of Plum Village and Thich Nhat Hanh. This short film was created by Josh Donaldson of ConsciousFilmco.
