I have worked in land management for over 3 decades and am interested in seeing how we can bring together people, farming and nature for everyone's benefit.

Celebrate the Wakelyns second annual Dal festival with Tree Amble's latest episode! Suffolk grown lentils + 7 chefs = wonderful tastes and sounds - from a crop with low food miles and nitrogen fixing + high in protein.. @kernowbeaver @wakelyns
Ever wonder what our uplands might look like if we left areas un-grazed for long periods?
This area of Tebay Common has been un-grazed for, we think, over 40 years.......
Interested in your thoughts!

Does anyone know how much glyphosate our local authorities use to kill road side weeds in the UK? Just wondering if there's a link with our loss of wildlife - insects moths etc? Can we not leave some room for nature?
