Tonight I'm heading down to London to talk to founder and CEO of ethical online grocery company FarmDrop, Ben Pugh.
We talk about where his love for the outdoors and countryside came from, our broken food system and his determination to change it, how FarmDrop initially came about, what they are & what they're doing, how they're helping British farmers get greater returns, and his hopes for the future.
All this and much, much more.
Check it out folks..
LONDON MARATHON 2019: As required by Universal law, much like if you're a vegan, if you're doing a marathon you have to tell people about it. Well I'm doing the London one in April 2019, and I'm raising money for the incredible charity FARM AFRICA.
Between 8 February and 8 May donations in support of my London Marathon challenge will go to Farm Africa’s Coffee is Life appeal. Give before 8 May 2019 and all public donations to Farm Africa’s Coffee is Life appeal will be doubled by the UK government. Your donation will support Farm Africa projects across eastern Africa, and the matched funding you unlock from the UK government will directly fund a Farm Africa project that will give women in Kanungu in western Uganda the opportunity to make a decent living from coffee farming.
If you want to see more about the AMAZING work they do please visit www.farmafrica.org & if you'd like to sponsor me the link is www.justgiving.com/fundraising/william-evans12 and from now until 8th May, the UK Government will match your donation - thank you!
