A centrepiece of the event is the Off Grid College, a 12 module course in low-impact and sustainable living, focused on practical applications of knowledge ranging from Permaculture techniques to DIY 12v technology; Eco Build skills to wild food and medicine foraging; natural waste and water systems to making your own biogas system. Alongside this there is an annual Conference covering topics as diverse as the New Economy; smallscale farming and food production; low impact law; One Planet development; Resilient Communities; Cooperatives and Organisational Structures, etc. All this and more in festival surroundings with childrens area; main stage; organic food and drink; permaculture gardens; forest school; bushcraft space; traditional crafts and alternative technology area and much more besides.

Off Grid plans to return in 2016 as part of a new venture, The Biophilia Project, on a 96-acre farm within the city limits of Exeter. It's an amazing location where the owner has a clear vision to showcase Another World is Possible through demonstration of innovative land management techniques, hosting community activity and by providing a haven in touching distance of urban areas for those seeking solutions to local and global issues. A true Transition project.
