The Deer Wood Trust is a not for profit organisation aimed at conservation and education, as well as benefits to the community, society and the environment at large. The trust represents a social model that is part of the pioneering movement towards a truly sustainable modern way of living in harmony with the land. The objective is to operate beyond “carbon neutral” via land based endeavours centred around tree cultivation. Efforts are also aimed at implementing activities involving volunteers and course participants that result in giving back to the natural systems more than is taken out. The net result is not just carbon positive but socially and ecologically positive too- a truly holistic approach to living as well as making strides towards repairing the damage done by negligent human activities.
The Site - This quiet 12 acres of mixed deciduous forest is a part of the land tapestry which makes up the Aller brook catchment that feeds into South Devon’s Avon River. After many years of neglect Deer Wood has now become a vibrant living example of our emerging contemporary British woodland culture. Managed in an ecologically sensitive and balanced way Deer Wood is a healthy and diverse home to a great range of trees, plants, insects and animals as well as it’s human custodians who live on site in a simple and sustainable manner in-keeping with the woodland environment.

We are everyday people living in and around Kingsbridge who are standing up for the future through peaceful protest and action. We’re doing it because we care. We’re doing it because those in power aren’t taking the climate and ecological emergency anywhere near seriously enough. We’re doing it so our children and grandchildren have a future they can look forward to.
