What an incredible two days at the Farming for Nature Festival! With both days completely sold out and over 800 people attending, Ballykilcavan was buzzing with energy, sunshine, music, conversation and connection throughout. From inspiring farmer stories and thought-provoking talks to practical field demonstrations and shared learning, the festival created a truly special space for people passionate about farming, food and nature. The openness, generosity and wisdom shared by so many inspirational farmers and speakers made this inaugural festival a huge success and a powerful reminder of what’s possible when people come together around a shared vision for the future of farming.
The Farming for Nature Festival 2026 was supported by Shared Island Civic Society Fund, Lifes 2 Good Foundation, National Parks and Wildlife Service and Dept of Agriculture, Food and Marine.
