© 2026 GROUNDED Live
Description
GROUNDED Festival is a cross between a farming conference and a food festival, held in a different farm location every year, so each festival is a unique, unmissable event celebrating local expertise and culture with an inspiring line up of speakers.
With multiple stages running concurrently, it combines science and technology with ancient wisdom, provides a respectful place for lively discussion, an audience as interesting as the speakers and an excellent menu of local food, drinks and music, all on a beautiful, regeneratively-managed farm.
Each year we record presentations and make them available, free for all, as a podcast called GROUNDED Live. We hope you enjoy the conversations.

The brief was simple — how do we fix farmland? — but the answers, as always, were complex, layered and deeply human. To explore that question, we brought togeth...
In this episode of GROUNDED Live, we share another unedited session recorded at GROUNDED Festival 2025, on farm in Bridgetown, Western Australia. When we talk about waste, it’s often framed as inefficiency — a waste of time or resources. But food waste carries a deeper cost. It represents lost farmer effort, squandered natural resources, and a profound disrespect for the land and labour that produced it. Globally, it’s estimated that more than 40% of food grown for human consumption is never ...
In this episode of GROUNDED Live, we share another unedited session recorded at GROUNDED Festival 2025, on farm in Bridgetown, Western Australia. This session is presented by Matthew Evans — GROUNDED founder and director, farmer, chef, author and host of the GROUNDED Live podcast. For a long time, soil was treated as little more than a growing medium — a place to hold plants upright while inputs did the work. But we now understand something far deeper: how we treat soil is ultimately how we t...
In this episode of GROUNDED Live, we share another unedited presentation recorded at GROUNDED Festival 2025, on farm in Bridgetown, Western Australia. When you’re managing land or running a farm, it can be easy to think your responsibility ends at the fence line. In many ways, that’s true — but when it comes to water, the story is much bigger. This session features Carolyn Hall, CEO of the Mulloon Institute, an organisation at the forefront of landscape-scale water restoration in Australia. B...
