wild Events

Two woodland venues. One organic farm. Infinite ways to gather.

Teybrook Orchard and Chalkney Water Meadows are set on a fifth-generation, family-run organic farm in rural Essex, just an hour outside of London. Hidden among ancient woodland and meadows, they offer a unique setting for off-grid gatherings that are big on soul and low on stress.

Want to bring your own caterer? No problem. Fancy a low-key weekend with swims and supper? We can make it happen. Planning a 50th birthday party with 100 guests, a DJ, a fire pit and a pizza truck? We’ll help you plan it.
