Big Tent is organised by Falkland Centre for Stewardship, a small charity based in the heart of Falkland Estate.
As well as caring for the A-listed House of Falkland with its arts and craft interiors and historic landscape, we are developing Falkland Estate as a place where people are learning how to live and work more sustainably. Our interests span from the value of re-skilling our communities to the impact of today’s decisions on climate change for future generations. We are adapting old ideas of stewardship to the needs of our modern, fast changing world with an organic farm that is starting to produce affordable food for our local town, by upgrading miles of paths to strengthen our connections with neighbouring communities, planting thousands of trees and considering plans for allotments and wood fuel production.
As well as hosting the Big Tent, we are also home to various projects such as the Woodland Learning Programme and the Zero Waste Programme for Fife. We frequently run smaller activities and courses so look up our website for what’s happening.
