Thank you to every­one who came to the 31st Earth First! sum­mer gath­er­ing at Brithdir Mawr in Pem­brokeshire! We had amaz­ing work­shops and deli­cious food. We talked about the future of Earth First! and the move­ments we’re a part of, as well as how to smash traps, climb trees, dance dan­ga, raise kids, care for our com­mu­ni­ties, and keep on fight­ing for green anar­chy. There was that per­fect com­bi­na­tion of old friends to catch up with, and new ones to make. We were sur­round­ed by nature, includ­ing a beau­ti­ful moun­tain which saw lots of walks up it, and a stun­ning beach which had at least one par­ty. We were joined by some very tal­ent­ed bands who per­formed some great gigs. We only had one lead acid bat­tery short cir­cuit, and even then it did­n’t real­ly catch fire.

This win­ter, we want to have region­al win­ter moots all over the coun­try. If no-ones doing it in your area, maybe you could! Or if they already are, then why not join in. Hope­ful­ly enough places organ­ise one that we won’t need to have an offi­cial nation­al moot; but we will make sure some­thing hap­pens 6–8th Feb­ru­ary 2026, be it a local group or a nation­al moot. Hope to see you all soon!

Save the date: 2025 Earth First! Summer Gathering!

The 2025 Earth First! Sum­mer Gath­er­ing will be from 6th — 11th August in Pem­brokeshire, Wales! It is a gath­er­ing of the rad­i­cal eco­log­i­cal move­ment, a chance to catch up with old friends, forge new con­nec­tions and get stuck in with mak­ing eco­log­i­cal rev­o­lu­tion a real­i­ty. We’ll post more infor­ma­tion soon, but you can expect five days of engag­ing work­shops, impor­tant dis­cus­sions, great music, deli­cious food and liv­ing, breath­ing green anar­chism.

The near­est train sta­tion is Fish­guard & Good­wick, Pem­brokeshire. The exact loca­tion will be announced clos­er to the time (it’s a bus ride and then a 40 min walk, or a car shut­tle from Fish­guard). More detailed trav­el infor­ma­tion is avail­able here
