Description:
From the Hebridean Islands to the Celtic Rainforest, our ancient ancestors forged life-sustaining relationships with other animals, plants, and the landscape itself. These relationships were passed on to future generations, encoded in mythic stories, songs, and cultural artefacts, some of which survive to this day.  
 
Hydref is a Pembrokeshire-based collective of artists, educators, and traditional skills practitioners working to revitalise nature-based education, with a combined practice that includes ancestral skills, somatics, science, and storytelling.
 
In this talk, Max Henderson (Ecologist, Artist and Social Science Researcher) will be sharing a selection of British and European folk tales, woven with ecological insights, and discussing the importance of folk culture in the search for sustainable futures.
