Rock & Roll Farming


Mar 20, 2019

Tonight Im heading across the country to Suffolk, to talk to arable farmer and conservationist, Brian Barker.

We talk about his family farm's incredible connection to the Tudor's, the changes he and his cousin Patrick have made since joining the business, the huge amount of environmental improvements they've done, being an AHDB strategic farm, #SoilMyUndies, the Oxford Farming Conference, #farmwildlife and much, much more.

Brian's one of the most progressive farmers around, and a great communicator, and this is one of my favourite interviews yet.

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!
