Land Access Stories
Manage episode 448471038 series 3379081
There are so many stories out there of how people come to farming – whether it’s first generation, or intergenerational. The fascinating yet frustrating thing is these stories are almost all different. There doesn’t seem to be a simple, tried and true path to farming. Frustrating too, because the tips and strategies of the ‘how’ are hard to hear and tease out. The crew tries to do just that, focusing on finding the high-level nuances of those strategies, while attempting to build a list of tips for those stuck in the complexity of doing something that feels hard on a good day.
A special thank you to the many, many farmers and farm workers who sat down to share their stories with us. One of the hardest choices of the season was choosing which made it into the show. Thank you again, and to those reading, listen to your farmers – their stories are ones of perseverance, strength and resilience, and certainly sources of great hope.
