FOOD GLORIOUS FOOD !!

Ruth and I love our food... and a lot of our lives revolve around it. If we're not cooking, eating, storing, growing, looking at recipes, harvesting or shopping for it we'll probably be digesting it or thinking about it. So I don't like to think that we're moving into an era of steadily increasing prices and shortages.

FOOD SECURITY

I have to say that our food security in the UK generally is pretty terrible. We live in an age when people expect to be able to drive to a huge hall and be able to get anything they want at any time of year. Many people have become so dependent on the industrial way of life that they now haven't a clue about growing their own food.

NEW: Farm blog

IAN: I've set up this blog for the farm hoping it will make it easier for people to see what we do, what we're all about and get involved or support us in one way or another. 

Help, share, learn, have fun :-)

There's lots we're hoping to develop over the coming months including, in the area behind me in the photo, a pond and a strip along its edge for wildflowers and wildlife habitat. We're looking for people with experience with these to help us set things up.
