Eat the Planet Well

Author Talk and supper with Dave Goulson
6pm Thursday 4 June 2026

Dave Goulson is a tour de force. Professor of Biology at the University of Sussex and specialist in the ecology of insects, he has for decades spearheaded the fight against pesticides that are decimating our insect populations. Inevitably, his work has taken him into the sphere of farming – the biggest culprit in what has become known as ‘insectageddon’. His latest book tackles the problems of industrial food production head on, but in a way that is empathetic, non-judgemental, pragmatic and hopeful. Eat the Planet Well is a guide to sustainable, ethical, healthy eating.

Join him in the company of Isabella Tree and Charlie Burrell to learn how we can navigate the minefield of shopping choices and eating habits to become a positive force for change.

Enjoy a glass of bubbly on arrival, followed by Dave’s talk and audience Q&A, book signing and a delicious three-course dinner at the award-winning Wilding Kitchen.

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.
