This October we invite you to step into the liminal space between the seasons for a restorative and imaginative creative walk with author and green witch, Rebecca Beattie, inspired by her book The Season of Frost and Fire: A Witch’s Winter in 13 Rituals. Designed for anyone craving a seasonal reset and a dip into nature as we begin to lean into the dark half of the year.

Seven Fables and The Exmoor Society present an evening with historical archaeologist Eloise Kane, the author of Wilderlands, The Human History of Wild Britain - Wainwright Prize Longlist 2026

When was Britain last truly wild? And what, if anything, remains? This is the unexpectedly human history of wild Britain.

In Wilderlands, archaeologist Eloise Kane unearths 12,000 years of our changing relationship with and influence on the landscape. Through prehistory, Roman occupation, the Middle Ages and beyond, we see the unfamiliar beasts of our old wild make way for species such as brown hare and fallow deer, now romanticised as eternal symbols of the British countryside, but introduced much later than we might think.

Places free from our influence haven’t existed for a very long time. But Eloise Kane invites us to rethink our definition of the wild – not as separate from us. Seen anew as the result of millions of human lives lived, Wilderlands demonstrates how we are integral to the ecology and biodiversity of our land - with the power to shape its future.

This weekend's newsletter!
Sent with love from Exmoor Xx

This time last year we were focused on our Solstice launch for Wild Folk with Tamsin and Jackie, so by comparison this June feels positively mellow. Embracing the light evenings we have ventured out with simple picnics to swim and walk. Our first river swim was during that balmy heatwave, and the sh...
