Green ethos

Green ethos The festival is locally organised and all the food, drink, and most of the bands are locally sourced, apart from maybe a couple from Ireland, and probably some Scandinavians. Wherever possible the bars and stages are made of recycled materials and the whole event takes place in an area of outstanding natural beauty. The Firewood festival is about woodworking, trees and renewable energy and the National Park have provided an electric car for the organisers to run around in.

The Insider happens in an area of outstanding natural beauty and they want it to stay that way. Please remember that horses live in the fields the rest of the year and don't leave anything behind.

More information will be here when available.
