We're excited to be taking part in one of the highlights of our calendar – Groundswell 2025, taking place on 2 and 3 July. Throughout the event, we’ll be hosting NFFN-led sessions, supporting inspiring talks from our members, and welcoming visitors to our NFFN stand (PF B2).

One not to miss: our drinks reception at the stand from 5.00pm to 6.30pm on Wednesday, 2 July. This informal gathering is a great opportunity to meet the NFFN team, connect with others in the community, and explore ideas for the future of nature-friendly farming – all over a relaxed drink.

Scroll down for the full schedule of sessions where you’ll find us throughout Groundswell 2025. We look forward to seeing you there!
