Episode 28 of the Knepp Wildland Podcast transports us far away from Knepp and into the beautifully rugged landscape of Asturias in Spain. We’re visiting stunning Wild Finca to meet a family, inspired by Knepp, making a big change on their 13-hectare landholding.
They’re using local herbivore breeds, Asturcon horses and Casina cattle, to create a wildlife oasis and a place where people can be inspired to make positive changes for nature. We talk to Luke Massey about his exciting vision for this landscape, delving in to farming subsidies, wolves and education with a backdrop of croaking Nightingales, chirping crickets and the shrill call of the Black Woodpecker.
Take a look at the Wild Finca website for more information about this wonderful project, and how you can visit!
