In the farming world, one year isn’t considered a long time at all; a timescale which doesn’t give much opportunity for change. However, this project has proved that this is not always the case, and that in just twelve months, amongst a group of forward thinking, talented, and adaptable farmers, a lot can be achieved.
Over the course of one year, LEAF supported ten farmers across England. They represent a variety of sectors and business sizes; each was starting out from a different place, but what united them all was their drive and commitment to approach the challenge of climate change through more nature-based farming. During this time, farmers have completed a carbon footprint tool, met with a bespoke adviser from the industry, took part in workshops and further engaged with LEAF. This booklet documents each of their unique stories.
