Emergency stop on the way back from work to sit & watch the start of harvest in Yorkshire, it’s always a joy to watch, this year even more so after what has been such a challenging season. Wishing all farmers near & far a safe, happy & hopefully bountiful harvest 🌾 Thank you! 👏🏻

Beyond excited to be welcoming Dr Allen Williams to Mindrum Farm very soon! Set to be an informative & inspiring FREE farm walk with an expert in grazing methodology & regen agriculture #gettingbangforyourbuck If there’s only one day off farm in harvest, let it be this one!

It’s been just over two weeks since I set off on my one way trip around the world. After arriving in the dark I woke up to this surreal view, feeling eternally grateful to experience this. Still adjusting to this new life but itching to get out on farm in a couple of weeks time.

BTS of a series following climate scientists. Today we cleared invasive weeds from some of the 25K native trees planted at Lake Hawea Station. Five days of footage into 15 mins 🤯 I got to speak about land use & plant diversity, coming to 0.4 seconds of screen time near you soon!

There’s nothing not to like about working at Shimpling Park Farm, but if you don’t like having fun at work, feeling part of a strong team who is making a difference, living in a biodiverse haven, learning & developing on the job, then this is not for you and I will happily take it 💫

Our upland farmers earn less than half the minimum wage. In 2023-4 one in three English farms lost money - according to government’s own figures. Yet this Prime Minister is slashing promised support & targeting them with punitive taxation. Honesty matters.

Farmers are totally perplexed 1950-1990 cheap food 1990-2010 oh shit that crashes nature 2016 green BREXIT 2020-23 public goods for public £ 2024 not quite enough £ 2025 we’ve lost interest - can you do cheap food and nature with no funding? This wasn’t on anyone’s bingo card

Everyone, if you do only one thing today (which is unlikely in this industry but you get where I’m going with this), make sure it’s listening to this episode of The Pasture Pod 💡 🧠
