Podcast Episode 12: The Purple Emperor Update

Episode 12 is a bonus episode with Matthew Oates. A visit from Matthew in early June meant we could take this opportunity to have a catch-up about the forthcoming Purple Emperor season, weird weather and what our summer butterfly season might look like!

We’ve had well over 30,000 downloads now, and are hugely grateful for all your support, so thanks for listening, sharing, rating and supporting us!

This podcast wouldn’t have been possible without the support of some very talented people so many thanks go to: Lia Brazier for the beautiful artwork, Mat Davidson for the wonderful music and the fantastic Ian Bunn for his patient editing skills.

For more information about Matthew and his publications please take a look at his website

Our 12+ Policy

Knepp Wildland Safaris, our gardens and campsite are all about the quiet and patient observation of nature.

Some of the species we are likely to encounter are shy or can be frightened by loud noises or sudden movements. Our campsite with open-air fire-pits, wood-burning stoves and an on-site pond is unsuitable for small children.

For this reason, our safaris, garden visits, holiday cottages and campsite are suitable only for children of 12 and over.
