About The High Nature Centre
The High Nature Centre is a 5 acre smallholding located on a coastal plateau 130m above sea level on the South Devon Coast. The site is level and surrounded by mature hedges, and is a short walk away from a dramatic picturesque stretch of the South West Coast Path and some of the most spectacular sandy beaches in England. High Nature was founded in 2009 by Permaculture Designers Catherine Middleditch and Douglas Lane. Originally a plant nursery known as Wayfield Nurseries, the small holding has a history of growing cauliflowers, cut flowers and was then managed by a local woman known as ‘Green Jane’ who grew beautiful organic fruit and vegetables for the local community. Over the last 10-15 years, the land has slowly been diversified using permaculture ethics and principles into a mixed use of eco-tourism, organic food growing, well-being activities, nature connection, rewilding, and social outreach. The Centre continues to be managed by Catherine along with Tobdan and their daughter Tanzen-Zangmo.
