The time has come for us to formally announce that

The time has come for us to formally announce that Woodford Folk Festival will not be going ahead this Summer. It feels so surreal to be writing those words. We have been hinting at this for weeks now, however we wanted to be able to share some good news at the same time.
Even with our heavy hearts, we are excited to announce a new five day/night inspired camping holiday at Woodfordia, now called Bushtime. What is it? It’s a campground, at Woodfordia, our parkland which has never looked more beautiful. Everyone’s Bushtime experience will be different. We’ll be hosting an evening concert at The Pond, some citizen science talks and demonstrations and a few other delights. We hope you’ll be immersing in nature with swims in Lake Gkula, bush walking, biking, picnics in secluded spots and experiencing evenings under the stars. There will also be options to book workshops (yoga, music, visual arts, circus, humanities) throughout the day for an hour or an intensive multi-day learning.

Bushtime will be held over the September holidays on the below dates:
Saturday 19th - Wednesday 23rd September
Saturday 26th - Wednesday 30th September

Bookings will open on Tuesday 25th August. We will be giving priority for bookings to Woodfordia Citizens by making them available a couple of days before this date. Information, ticket conditions, FAQ’s, performance and workshops details will all be available online when bookings open.

Help us grow the FunLab to study fungi and their superpowers through Woodfordia’s citizen science Mycology Research Project. By purchasing the Fungi of Woodfordia Poster, you will help us to buy some essential lab equipment and work with the wonderful world of fungi to celebrate their vital roles in ecosystems such as creating soils, nourishing all plants and seeding rain clouds. The poster is available for purchase at www.emporiumofkeepsakes.com

With the recent cancellation of The Planting, we weren't able to sell our wares and enjoy them with you at the festival. To relieve the burden of excess stock and reignite the Woodfordia spirit, we are having a 50% off sale on our entire Emporium of Keepsakes range including Woodfordia Apothecary. Visit www.emporiumofkeepsakes.com to view our collections and collectables.

We are looking for some dedicated Woodfordia-loving volunteers who can lend their efforts to making the land beautiful again. While we are not recruiting volunteers for any upcoming festivals at this time due to the Coronavirus pandemic, Woodfordia is in need of some much needed care and with only a very small site crew, we need more hands to get the necessary work done.

Visit The Planting website and click on "Get Involved" to learn more. Link in our bio.

It is with deep regret and much sadness that today

It is with deep regret and much sadness that today, Woodfordia has cancelled The Planting Festival 2020.⁠
⁠
For those who have purchased Planting tickets already, we will be organising the refunding of your ticket purchases into your account in the next couple of days. ⁠
⁠
You would all be aware of the pandemic spreading worldwide. We’re not sure if the panic surrounding the Coronavirus is more damaging than the virus itself; but in the Event World, as you would’ve read, the reality is, we cannot risk the health and wellbeing of our community. It’s not up to us to be ‘sure’ that the threat is real – it’s up to us to heed advice and try to make the best decision we can. ⁠
⁠
Just one infection in our construction camp for The Planting would cause the site to be closed and the festival to be cancelled at the last minute. The Planting is only a two and half day festival however, with the identification of even one case at the festival, the potential negative impact on other attending members of the community could last from weeks to months. ⁠
⁠
Usually we would launch tickets for Woodford Folk Festival later in May. Given the current situation, we are yet to decide the ticket launch date for Woodford Folk Festival. ⁠
⁠
We wish you all well, and hope that you and your families are in calm good health during this time.

Be sure to bring your dancing shoes. There's going

Be sure to bring your dancing shoes. There's going to be many a chance to bust a move.⁠

The bellbirds were calling out into the crisp morning air when we arrived at the office today, with a few whipbirds chiming in the chorus. We're very much looking forward to sharing these glorious moments with you all at the beginning of May. ⁠
