The Heart of Dartington has been funded by Dartington Parish Council to enable local members of the community have an opportunity to visit Martin Crawford's research sites. So many local say that despite living here they haven't managed to visit before. Here is your chance - Also open to non-locals!
This is an invitation to book at a lower rate than usual. Why not do this in the morning and then come straight on to the Bioblitz at the Apricot Centre Farm.
Martin Crawford's Littlehempston Agroforestry Research site - No dogs please.
This is our newest site, obtained in 2011, covering 11 acres. The tour here takes in three new forest gardens (a small garden started in 2012, a medium sized garden in 2013, and forest garden to maximise carbon storage started in 2019/20), our forest garden greenhouse (started 2016) with a subtropical forest garden being established inside, experimental coppice plantings, and the nursery.
You only need to book adult places on this tour. Accompanied children come for free.
