Event Description
Cynefin: A warm welcome to all!
Welcome to Cynefin, a vibrant weekend celebration dedicated to the harmony between sustainable agriculture, wildlife conservation, and community spirit.
Cynefin is a Welsh word that refers to a sense of place, habitat, and belonging - the very essence of the connection between farmers, their land, and nature.
Join us for a unique two-day festival and conference at the stunningllangorse.com target= _blank style= color: rgb(0, 0, 0); > Llangorse Multi Activity Centre. We are bringing together farmers, conservationists, policymakers, and nature lovers to celebrate the vital - and often unrecognised - role that farmers play in stewarding the Welsh environment.
Cynefin explores how we can move past the idea of farming vs. nature and embrace a future of coexistence and mutual benefit.
