We believe the answer to a divided world is longer tables, not higher walls.

The Longer Table is a seasonal feast in the fields at Four Acre Farm. A gathering built around the simple, ancient act of breaking bread together. Good food, open conversation and the remembering of what community felt like before the noise increased.

Each monthly gathering holds a loose theme, a question worth sitting with rather than solving. There’s no agenda, no performance and no expectation that you arrive with answers. Just people willing to think out loud together, around a table, in a field, with good food and an open evening ahead.

We'll prepare a seasonal two-course meal from the land, with meat, vegan and vegetarian options.

Our theme for this first gathering - Enough.

Having named the strangeness last month, we now pull at the first thread. In a world where some people have far too little and others keep reaching for more regardless, what does enough actually look like? We buy, we scroll, we accumulate and most of us, if we're honest, feel the pull even when we know better. Most of us rarely get to talk about it openly.

This gathering holds that question without rushing toward an answer. What would it mean to genuinely stop at enough in what we own, what we consume and what we do? And what might it cost us (or free us) to find out?

Tickets - this is the longer table in action:

• Nick Whitnell spent years as a senior leader in the corporate world, chasing the next thing until he slowly lost himself along the way. That unravelling became an unexpected gift, a long walk back toward nature, toward what actually matters and toward a different kind of life. As a coach, facilitator, strategist and founder of Daring Works and The Natural Network, he now helps people find their own way back to themselves.
