Art and Energy’s Associate Matilda Wright has produced and presented a radio show for Noods Radio’s Avon Moot celebrating May Day 2026.

The show is Peat People and shares our love of peatlands, inspired by Peat-Fest South-West and the conversations, stories and sounds we’ve heard while recording our series of Bogcasts (podcasts).

Peat People features the voices of many of our partners and collaborators from Peat-Fest South-West plus a chorus of young people sharing the Manifesto.

Peat People was broadcast on Noods Radio, based in Bristol and EHFM, based in Edinburgh, you can listen again online or through the link below.

We hope you enjoy the show, let us know what you think in the comments below or email hello@artandenergy.org
