The Book of Wilding is a practical guide to rewilding, from small spaces to large landscapes.\u00a0\u00a0It is written by\u00a0Isabella Tree and Charlie Burrell, pioneers of the rewilding project at Knepp in Sussex.<\/p>\n
The book explores how nature can recover when given the opportunity to flourish.\u00a0\u00a0It draws on knowledge gained through the authors\u2019 pioneering work at Knepp.\u00a0\u00a0The approach covers rewilding on both a small and large scale.\u00a0\u00a0It considers what can be achieved in gardens, allotments, ponds and other small spaces.\u00a0\u00a0The book also explores rewilding farms, estates, rivers, parks and wider landscapes.\u00a0\u00a0It explains why restoring natural processes can benefit wildlife and ecosystems.<\/p>\n
Rewilding does not have to involve a large area of land.\u00a0\u00a0The book explores ways to encourage nature in spaces as small as window boxes.\u00a0\u00a0Gardens, churchyards and urban spaces can all provide opportunities for rewilding.\u00a0\u00a0Larger projects can involve farms, rivers, estates and wider landscapes.\u00a0\u00a0The book considers different approaches according to the scale and character of each space.\u00a0\u00a0It encourages readers to consider how their own surroundings could support nature.<\/p>\n
The book grew from the authors\u2019 experience at Knepp in West Sussex.\u00a0\u00a0Their work there developed into a wider exploration of restoring nature.\u00a0\u00a0The book shares knowledge gathered through that experience.\u00a0\u00a0It also responds to questions from people interested in rewilding their own surroundings.\u00a0\u00a0The guidance covers practical possibilities alongside the wider principles behind rewilding.\u00a0\u00a0The authors explore how individuals and communities can contribute to restoring nature.<\/p>\n
