After four months of walking, it was a massive relief and joy to complete the walk! 🙂 You can see a video here and article that the local paper made.
THANK YOU so much to all the people who walked on the Buzz Tour, to all those who shared their stories with us, to all those who donated and all those who fed and sheltered us. Without all those pieces of kindness and support it would have literally been impossible. There is no way we could have done a journey like this without the daily grace, charity and kindness of others. You have all created something which exceeded my expectations in every way. I am so grateful and lucky to have met you all.
This weekend’s climate march in London drew people from lots of different parts of the Buzz Tour, it was so wonderful to be reunited. We’d love to see everyone again! So we’re going to throw a Pollination Party in Oxford on the 25th of October! We’ll be emailing everyone invites over the next couple of days so if you don’t hear from us please drop us an email – we haven’t forgotten you, it’s just hard to gather all the emails together.
We’ve started work on a book about all the amazing things from the Buzz Tour. If you walked along and would like to write about your experience please drop us an email – we didn’t get everyone’s email at the time. As we finish a draft chapter it’ll be posted online so that everyone can comment and help us make it fantastic. We hope to have the book finished by spring!
During the walk we took ten hours of great interviews and footage that we’d love to make in to a documentary. If you’d like to be involved get in touch!
Eve, Congratulations, it is so fantastic what you have achieved and enabled through your pollinating work. The view I gained through your blogs was of lots of committed, enthusiastic and playful groups of people around the country seeding and growing new ways or rediscovering old ways of much needed alternatives to the main stream.
It was a pleasure to meet you, and would love to hear how this journey has impacted on and changed you. I’m sorry I couldn’t join you in the end- because of other commitments, but I felt like I was with you in spirit.
I’m not free on the 25th October sadly. But hope you have a wonderful party. Sounds like a lot more pollination will be occurring. I hope to meet you another time.
Love Julia

Aw thank you so much Julia 🙂 It’s really lovely now to start to remeet people and relive things going through my notebook to write the book. I’m so pleased you benefited from the blogs. I’m going through them all now and recategorising things to make it easy to use the site as a resource in future. Till our paths cross again, keep smiling, Eve
