  Description

  We are a live music organisation running pop up gatherings in beautiful and unusual places. We are based in the stunning county of Somerset and support original musicians and music projects through funds raised at our quirky food, folk club and festival events. We are a non profit organisiation. I have a small holding near my house where we hope to run gardening and music workshops and I am also involved with an organic vegetable community farm near Glastonbury.
  I am developing my own gardens and accommodation in order to host more workaways and musicians for residencies.
