We were delighted to appear on the recent Nature Connects podcast alongside local producer Wheal Farm to talk local food, market gardening, community and nature tamarvalleynationallandscape.podbean.com/e/food-from-... #agroecology #TamarValley #Cornwall
Two people stand on bright green grass in a farm or orchard setting under a partly cloudy sky. One holds a small tripod with a microphone and audio recorder attached. Both are wearing outdoor jackets and wellington boots, smiling at the camera, with rows of grape vines and trees behind them. Close-up of small yellow wildflowers growing in a slightly wild, weedy patch of ground, with rain-darkened soil and vegetation. In the background, slightly out of focus, are white polytunnels, farm buildings, and trees beneath a heavy grey sky. Three people stand on a muddy farm track after rain, with puddles in the foreground and fields and trees stretching into the distance. They are dressed in practical outdoor clothing and wellingtons. A white polytunnel is visible to the right, and low hills sit under a grey, overcast sky.
