A week's camping and parking on the site. A vegan supper on the first night. Access to a full week of interactive creative & wellbeing events. Drinking water and sinks for washing up. Compost toilets and heated showers.

Something to sleep in! Whether that is a hammock, tent, caravan, campervan or converted vehicle, you'll need somewhere to call your home for the week. All personal items for your stay. Please bring eco-friendly personal hygiene products as far as possible. Apart from supper on the first evening, food is not included so you can either bring everything for the week or you can go off-site to nearby shops to buy anything you need during your stay. Cooking utensils; DEFINITELY a mug, bowl, plate, knife fork & spoon! Large pots and pans are also handy. If everyone brings things to cook and prepare food with, there'll be enough of everything! . A torch. The site is dark at night time and is not lit. Stuff to share; stories, music, skills and talents are very welcome and the joy of the camp is the sharing of these! An open mind and willingness to get stuck in!

Rootstock takes place on private land in beautiful woodland and meadowland in South Cambridgeshire. Due to the privately owned location with no public right of way, ticket holders will be provided with detailed directions via email nearer the time of the event.

Of course! You'll find the other campers very friendly and events are set up to promote inclusivity. We camp in groups, each around its own central fire where kettles are boiled and food cooked. You are encouraged to eat together each evening, preparing meals in small groups. You will feel welcome and quickly make new friends.

Rootstock runs on the energy and enthusiasm of its participants! This means everyone gets involved in the day-to-day running of the camp. You get to chose the tasks you want to be involved with, ranging from chopping and barrowing wood, preparing social spaces and maintaining the compost loos.

There are large sheltered areas for the activities to place in. Like any camping trip in the summer, be prepared for all weathers. A big umbrella and wellies are recommended!

All the activities are included in your ticket price. You will only need money if you're going to the local shops. Please note there are no shops within walking distance of the site.

Apart from assistance dogs (by prior arrangement - please contact Rootstock), pets are not permitted on site.

The camp takes place in meadowland and woodland, parts of which are uneven so please do take care. Also, there are 3 steps up to the toilets and showers. We are working to improve our accessibility for future camps, and if you have any feedback about our physical site during your stay it will be very welcomed.

If you need to pee, whether you sit or stand, you have the whole forest to find a suitable spot. If you would like a little more privacy, individual cubicles (the 'pee palaces') are available for your use. Compost toilets are used for number 2's. Once you're done, simply throw in a handful of the provided sawdust and close the lid. These toilets are individual private cubicles, which are cleaned twice a day and the toilet paper replenished.

There is no publicly available mains power or generator on site. Why not give your phone a rest for the week?

We camp in groups of tents/vans, each of which has a small open fire at its centre as a focus for sitting, cooking and chatting. Each group is home to 5/6 tents/vans. Chose your group and pitch up. It's first come, first served.

We encourage people to make sure evening meals are vegan as this means most people can enjoy it. If you have an aversion, intolerance or allergy please make sure the others in your group are aware of this and remember - you can cook your meals separately if needed. You will find people sympathetic and accommodating, but you are responsible for your own special dietary needs.

Yes, of course. We would encourage you to make the most of this special time and avoid arriving late or leaving early if you possibly can.

Being a towel to sit on. You can be naked or wear trunks or a bathing costume. Do whatever you feel comfortable doing.

Yes, alcohol is allowed on site, please drink responsibly of course! Rootstock is a family friendly camp and there's not much of a drinking culture. There is no bar on site.
