In this episode, Jame speaks with Ashley Wheeler from Trill Farm Garden. Would you believe they have been going for 14 years now? We talk about how they have adapted their growing systems over that time, experimenting with field scale (although Ash questions whether that’s the right term!), setting up a new veg box scheme as an established market garden, all things radicchio and Ash’s reflections on the viability of small-scale growing in the current socio-economic context. Oh, and a bit about the importance of life beyond the farm, too. There’s a ton to take away from this one so let’s get to it.
