© 2022 From the Forge // Wild Rumpus
Description
Join leading outdoor arts organisation Wild Rumpus as we venture into unchartered territory. 2019 marked the biggest change in our 10-year history. We expanded our woodland home to include a 16th Century farmhouse in rural Cheshire and are setting up The Forge, a pioneering and exploratory place where art and culture meet the natural world. Join us as we transform Ashbank Farm, build a kitchen garden, raise chickens, and of course carry on producing our award-winning events. And now, in 2020, as the Covid-19 crisis impacts on us all, we talk about how we're adapting to the new world we find ourselves in.

In these week's episode, we capture the sounds of the Whirligig Woods and introduce the Sounds of the Forest project, and have our first group of artists staying at the woods since lockdown began.
In this episode, Sarah and Rowan take a trip down Just So Festival memory lane, and we venture into our barn full of pianos to revisit our 27 pianos project.
This week in from the Forge, we talk philosophy of metalwork with Tom, manage to start vintage Landrover Valentine, and take distanced delivery of some cool decor.
As we adapt to the Covid-19 crisis along with the rest of the world, Rowan and Sarah talk about what it means for Wild Rumpus. Rowan and some of the team are isolating at Ashbank, and we hear from freelance maker Lydia as she ventures back into the world.
Welcome to the Forge! Wild Rumpus are an outdoor arts organisation, who work from a woodland in rural Cheshire, creating experiences which inspire curiosity and designing events that immerse audiences in incredible stories and moments of wonder. We're ridiculously excited to be expanding our workspace, the Forge, to include Ashbank Farm, an incredible 16th century farmhouse with outbuildings, orchards, and heaps of potential. Here are Rowan and Sarah, directors of Wild Rumpus, talking about their plots and plans, hopes and dreams as we embark on this new adventure.
