About Rolf Gardiner

Henry Rolf Gardiner was an English rural revivalist who helped to bring back folk dance styles including Morris dancing and sword dancing. He also founded groups significant in the British history of organic farming; his forestry methods were far ahead of their time and he was a founder member of the Soil Association. He sympathised with Nazism, more specifically its pro-ruralist policies, and participated in inter-war far right politics. He organised summer camps with music, dance and community aims across class and cultures.
