About

Introducing WILD KEEP WEEKEND: a celebration of nature, heritage and traditional craft, all set within the unique surroundings of Hedingham Castle.
Created in partnership with Essex Wildlife Trust, we're turning up the volume on the natural world. Hedingham is a micro-biodiversity hotspot, and we're inviting you to get hands-on in our patch of the Essex countryside.
From fascinating performances and captivating storytelling, to workshops and inspiring conversations, there is something for everyone to discover. Visitors of all ages can slow down, explore the estate like never before and reconnect with the ancient skills that have shaped this landscape for generations.
