Chris Huskins (Fanfield Farm) – How we got land, Soil Principles and Using Animals in Permaculture Systems
Manage episode 294486115 series 2932566
The weekly podcast that talks all things food growing with those doing amazing things from across the UK and the world.
Every week we deliver you a podcast that interviews a fantastic food grower that is doing things differently, inspirationally or that has an awesome story to tell.
Normally this podcast is hosted by Chris and Jack but in this second ever episode Jack puts Chris in the hot seat to tell his story. We talk how Fanfield Farm came to be, the process of Urban Farming before hand, how they got on the land and live there, and how the farm has gone from a field to a farm that provides 60 veg boxes a week.
This is a podcast that will hopefully inspire and inform you whatever experience you have… from aspiring grower, to casual allotmenteer, right through to fully fledged market gardener. We will be talking everything from no-dig to permaculture, mushrooms to marketing.
We are your hosts Chris from Fanfield Farm and Jack from Jacks Patch and we will be bringing you an inspirational interview, some tips and tricks from our own farms as well as the fun feature of quick fire questions that we ask every guest…. Obviously including whether they prefer an evening farm beer or morning farm coffee!!
