The Accidental Ecologist

Friday 23 May 2025

Join Julian Moss as he shares his story of learning to look after a smallholding in
Waterley Bottom, and the unexpected joys he’s found in the natural world around him.

He’ll talk about the ecological experts who’ve helped along the way, the rich history of the land, and his plans for a regenerative vineyard.
It’s a personal and eclectic story of one man’s exploration of the valley’s biodiversity.

We’ll also be joined by Kathy Meakin, a local ecologist, who will talk about the insects that make North Nibley their home and what we can do to protect them.
