Soil & Supper with Fielden - Feasting, Music, Dance - at Daylesford Organic Farm

Join us for a joyful evening of festivities that revive an ancient tradition connecting us to nature and our land - gather with us to walk the farm's edges, with drinks in hand and music from Ordinary Folk, led by our Head of the Market Garden Jez Taylor and Guy Hayward, founder of the British Pilgrimage Trust.

We will join together for a warming toast to the land crafted by Fielden; before enjoying a relaxed three-course seasonal feast, film, storytelling and revelry.

Dance late into the night, led by The Lemon Célilí Co: a magical modern folk band.

A night to remind us of the importance of living with the seasons and caring for the soil - a philosophy that sits at the heart of Daylesford Organic and Fielden Whisky.

The night includes
  • A rolling film screening of SOIL IS LIFE by Joya Berrow, Lucy Jane & The Land Gardeners – A film Weaving the threads between Soil, Farming, Food and Fibre
  • A 'beating of the bounds' walk with Guy Hayward round the edges of the market garden with traditional song, stories of the local land and history of farming festivals
  • A pop-up book shop by Sherlock & Pages – books celebrating landscape, nature, history and heritage
  • Stories and tastings by Fielden – Whisky of England, who will share the history of their whisky, ethos and ways they care for the land and those that tend it
  • Jez Taylor, Director of growing in the Market Garden, tastings of Daylesford’s Evenlode Orchard Cider Head of the Market Garden
  • Book signing with Luke Sherlock with his new book Forgotten Churches

This was my first pilgrimage walk but won't be the last. Dawn was an inspiring guide in so many ways - teaching us, entertaining us and caring for us. It was wonderful to get to know new people as we trod in the footsteps of so many unknown walkers who had gone before us. I had a sense of awe at so many points - for the coastal scenery, the birdlife, the ancient trees and for the buildings that had witnessed so much history. And it was such a lovely surprise to be welcomed with tea in Apuldram Church - so very kind. I am very grateful that I could be part of this day.

Avebury Pilgrimage

The Avebury Pilgrimage was a joyful experience. Guy brought wonder and deep connection to the group experience. The other pilgrims were warm, fun and willing to surrender to this rich experience of movement, landscape, the past and the unseen world all around us. Thank you Guy!

Salisbury Silent Pilgrimage

My favourite part was walking in silence and being able to just concentrate on the purpose of my pilgrimage without the noise and baggage of life getting in the way. Abigail was a wonderful guide. She was thoughtful and brought a calm and sense of spiritual purpose to the day. I absolutely loved the walk.

Glastonbury Day Pilgrimage

Many good moments but two things stand out: Chalice Well and the impromptu singing of a wassail song on the way up Glastonbury Tor, by an apple orchard. It was cold yet rather lovely to do a pilgrimage in the frost. Informed and engaging guide. Friendly and supportive fellow pilgrims. Such a good ethos.

Canterbury Candlelight Pilgrimage

I loved walking through the countryside and the fascinating sights such as the church mill and barrow. The lanterns were lovely too and the Wassail singing and cake were a lovely touch. The arrival at Canterbury was spectacular. It was a lovely day and Dawn is a terrific guide.

Aylesford to Rochester

My favourite part was Dawn singing to us by Kits Coty - sublime when the sun came out for us at the end of the song. Dawn has a lovely sincerity and her singing was wonderful. Also the Canon’s pilgrim’s blessing In Winchester Cathedral was an unexpected and perfect end to the day

I enjoyed listening to Guy's singing in the different settings - enhanced the experience and linked us to the past. The whole day was beautifully facilitated with a perfect balance of history overview, time for reflection and walking. It was very special - thank you so much!

Glastonbury

I signed up on a whim without really knowing what I had signed up to, and it turned out to be the most extraordinary, magical day - starting with Guy's singing in the Chapel and culminating at those fabulous springs. The information, songs, chat and group experience were all wonderful. I can't recommend this pilgrimage highly enough - and I also hugely appreciate all the references in the follow up email. Brilliant. Thank you Guy!!

I loved the whole pilgrimage. A day of great connection with people, nature, sacred places, past and present. Also particularly enjoyed Guy's singing which added something special and his commentary. Also the friendliness of fellow pilgrims in the group which was partly enabled by having a buddy and introductory exercise.

Green King Pilgrimage, Windsor

Very grateful for the work that’s being done by all who are mapping the routes and sharing their knowledge. All this while I’m still mobile and can join in with day walks ... I asked for the book for my birthday and it has much in it. The Green King though was more my thing, lower key with lots in nature. I am very keen on sacred water sites (following the work of Veda Austin) so would enjoy more of those if possible. One day walks are really fab. Thank you everyone.
