Call for volunteers…..

It was wonderful to have one of our fabulous volunteers Emily and her children helping out on the patch. With lots of jobs to do to ensure our veg patch produces our delicious veg, our volunteering crew is fundimental to our success.

If you have an interest in gardening and would like to join us on the veg garden please get intouch. No experience necessary and time in nature, with your hands in the soil and good company guaranteed!

It was wonderful to spend a sunny afternoon getting on top of a few jobs at the patch to get the garden ready for winter!
We have laid wood chip on existing paths and strimmed the patch ready to lay cardboard and create new wood chip paths, where the grass would have been, to reduce annual maintenance.

So great to get more jobs ticked of the list in great company 🙏🏻🌱☀️

Over 100 organisations and high profile food and farming spokespeople signed our open letter to the supermarkets asking them to adopt the principles from our Fair To Farmers charter, to better support farmers and save British family farms.
The support is clear - we need to .

Here's what signatory Ray Mears said...
Want to have your say? Add your voice to ours by signing our petition at getfairaboutfarming.co.uk (link in bio). It's quick, easy, and will make a big difference. We're aiming for 100,000 signatures so that this can be debated in Parliament.

After a morning in the polytunnel at Staverton Nursary I’m looking forward to coming live to you from The Polytunnel Project in the sunshine at 5pm. We have been busy and I can’t wait to show you the results 🌱🙏🏻🌞

My spirits feel completely lifted with the glorious sunshine. And I had the pleasure of pulling together the plant list for our latest project at Stavertons Plant Nursary this morning. I can’t wait to show you the finished results next week!

Spending time amongst plants is my happy place and I’m always happy to run garden coaching sessions at your local plant nursary.

How The Polytunnel Project was born

The Polytunnel project came about after Becca's love for growing vegetables, change of career to horticulture and falling in love with a young horse at South Brockwells Farm collided. A contra arrangement was hatched to enable Becca's to own and keep Flash (the horse) at SBF in return for designing, managing and implementing the renovation and landscaping of the somewhat unused polytunnel and veg patch. The aim; to start producing vegetables and plants for the onsite farm shop which is open Late April to June for asparagus season & late September to February for game season.

Rebecca developed her love of growing vegetables from her late Dandad Bob and thinks of him every time she pull and eats a carrot, direct from the earth. Since the start of the project Rebecca has retrained in horticulture, garden design and permiculture, bringing all of these skills to the project along with kinesthetic learning.

The project is run on minimal budget and the majority of material used for the redevelopement have been sourced free of charge from local business or from Becca’s landscaping projects.
