For kids
Off Grid isn't just for the adults the little ones and 'not so little ones' can have a weekend of fun and inspired learning in a safe and relaxed environment. This year sees the introduction of the kids Tribal Village which will be a chance for the kids to explore tribal ritual, tradition and dress, to make their own rules and found their own society - all overseen by skilled adults. The four days will each have their own theme- Thursday is the day of joining a tribe, Friday the day of discoveries and adventures, Saturday, battles and challenges and Sunday will be dedicated to feasting, celebration and revelry.Last year's sellout event raised money to fund a new Solar Thermal water heating system at Fernhill Farm. The farm also has an amazing WET reed bed water filtration system for all water and toilet waste, rainwater recycling, eco build camping barns and a Bio-mas boiler. This years event is aiming to fund the building of a Roundhouse.
