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.
In this episode have an amazing chat with Michael Kennard from Compost Club. He runs a fantastic company in East Sussex that collects your household food waste, and returns it to you as amazing biology filled compost! This chat was so awesome and filled with so much great information that we talked for over 2 hours!!!!
We have therefore split the chat into two episodes, the first half is out now, and the rest out next week. In this episode we cover:
A recap on part 1
Dr Elaine Ingrams Course
Crazy soil learning and knowledge
All things soil health and how it forms the basis of life
Other learning resources
Lewes FC
Michaels Market Garden and Allotment Growing
Mushrooms and Mycelium
Inhabit Documentary

And much much more...
And The all important quick-fire questions of course…. Will Michael be #teambeer or #teamcoffee ???
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!!
