My podcast episode with the very lovely Slightly Foxed | Magazine, Small Press, Podcast where we talk farming, writing and revolutions. I could have stayed *all* day. Listen where you get your podcasts or here: foxedquarterly.com/down-to-earth-…

It feels like the extreme weather we’re experiencing & its impact on nature & the food supply should be being mentioned (at all) in our national conversation.

These are all field of *crops*.

Gulp. Nervous & excited. I’ll never get used to seeing my face declaiming on screen but the cinematography and wildlife footage by Passion Pictures is astonishing. And great perfs from my heroes Derek Gow Frans Vera, Ted Green &, of course, Charlie Burrell

It is bizarre that food production (which keeps us alive) gets more pressure to reduce its footprint than fast fashion, totally unnecessary flights for holidays, the film industry & motorsports.
I’m not saying we don’t have a part to play but the legislative focus seems warped.

📢 People’s inability to afford good food is a social injustice - it must be tackled by the gov

Cheap food is a false economy, paid for in environmental degradation and soaring healthcare costs

4/5 people say everyone should have access to healthy food - the gov must do better

New poll shows citizens want more support for farmers 👩‍🌾

With nearly 1 in 2 people cutting back on the quality of food they eat due to money, it’s time for policymakers to join the dots to ensure fairness for all, from farm to fork.

Hi Sarah Langford your book, Rooted, about regenerative farming is great and it resonates with how we in Edinburgh are trying to get more kids to cycle to school. We are slowly getting there but cycling/active travel is still the exception not the rule😭.

We’re demanding UK governments ban new industrial poultry units, get chicken consumption to a sustainable level and help farmers get out of this damaging industry and into nature-friendly farming

#StopKillingOurRivers #SaveTheWye #SaveOurRivers

📢 TELL UK GOVERNMENTS - no new intensive poultry units! #StopKillingOurRivers

💩 Pollution from industrial chicken production is killing the #RiverWye . If we don’t act now, it could suffer total ecological collapse - and your local river could be next.

We’re looking for cover for my role ! 😊 pls share and happy to chat if you know anyone interested 👍🚜🪲🐛🌻🌿

Just sharing this hour of magic from last years conference, on #InternationalWomensDay we were thrilled to have Amy Hughes (nee Fawcett) Claire Whittle Howemill Sarah Langford on stage, with the legend that is Michael Blanche youtu.be/6f8K4NxngzQ?si…

Amen to this and ✊ Emily Norton

This book by ⁦Sarah Langford⁩ about farms and farmers is wonderful, and hearing her read it is a gift. Highly recommended.

James Rebanks This example from Clive Bright demonstrates this clearly
Trees and grasses are complementary
While *every* grazing metric is improved with trees in the right place

🙏 Transworld Books for the early copy of Wendy Joseph’s new book. With contemporary & historical cases from The Old Bailey, it looks like it’s going to be as interesting and important as her last.

“We try and build resilience into our farm ... I think this is a real message for farmers all across the country.'

A timely call from John Pawsey 🌞 in this Sustainable Food Trust short. With the right support, farm businesses can produce good food, care for nature AND thrive.…

The hidden cost of 'dredging'. Farmer 'A' up stream clears debris along a 'stretch' of his river, reducing flooding incidents there. The power and velocity of the water getting to Farmer 'B' downstream is eroding the bank at an alarming rate and causing his farm to shrink!

Spent all morning at a really helpful SFI talk put on by our local CSF. This all adds up 👇 ‘Delivering environmental goods alongside food production equaling exactly twice the basic payment we used to receive across the arable area’

Oh HELLO THERE Rooted 🔥💚
