'Six Inches of Soil' screening & talk with Alex Davies 'Taking back control: truning sh*t into black gold'
A chance to come and watch 'Six Inches of Soil', the inspiring story of 3 young British farmers standing up against the industrial food system and transforming the way they produce food - to heal the soil, our health and provide for local communities.
Talk- 'Taking back control: turning sh*t into black gold'
We are also welcoming wildlife, community and agroecological advocate Alex Davies to give a talk and advice session on how we can continue to build this precious resource. This will be a great opportunity to ask questions and glean some more knowledge from Alex!
Alex has worked in regenerative land management for over twenty years. After training in Horticulture, he set up a company to create productive, wildlife-friendly gardens. For the past 10 years, he has facilitated land based projects with a focus on community involvement and agroecological food production. He now manages a wildlife estate, has managed several market gardens and has worked to help people with a broad range of of challenges including mental health issues and learning disabilities.
