Today we’ll be enjoying a day of food and conversation. The breathtakingly beautiful Great Barn in Higher Ashton, nestled deep in the bucolic Teign Valley, will play host to three fascinating talks and a lecture recital, with the option of a fabulous lunch of local produce and treats.⠀ ⠀ ⠀ • Dartmoor expert Emma Cunis shares some of Dartmoor's more secret landscapes⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ • Chris Chapman talks about his sensitive and often poignant photographs reflect the traditional skills, culture and character of life in the Devon uplands.⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ • Join John Varley OBE TD, Director of the 10,000 hectare Clinton Devon Estates, reflecting on the challenges that face the countryside and the case for transformation and change.⠀ ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ • Exeter University scholars Tim and Philip shine a light on Ivor Gurney's fascinating life, and his wonderful poetry and music. His art songs are beloved by singers and audiences across the country, but you will be surprised to discover how much of his wonderful work remains little-known. #twomoors #food #rural #countryside #dartmoor #twomoorsfestival
