We, along with farmers throughout the UK @landwork

We, along with farmers throughout the UK @landworkersalliance stand in solidarity with farmers protesting in India against new laws pushed through by government without the consultation of farmers.

Thousands travel to New Delhi to protest 3 new acts passed by the government of Narendra Modi that seek to further subject Indian farming to globalised business interests. Condemned by all 30 of India's farming unions, farmers and land workers are set to lose the minimum price garentee on their produce.

These new reforms take away the safety net of MSP and give power to corporations to dictate crop prices and further unsettle the already fragile relationship between farmers and the market.

This year was our first year growing drying peas.

This year was our first year growing drying peas. These silvery blue and yellow peas varieties are from the fantastic Hodmedods! 🦔

Grown and harvested back in the heat of the summer, these dried peas are the perfect pantry staple to see you through these chillier months. This first batch has made its debut appearance in our wonderful weekly veg bags and will hopefully be warming the bones and filling the tums of many of you! 🌱

A massive thankyou to @fooddrinkdevon for our business gold award this year!

We are all feeling very proud of the work we have been doing, in a truly roller-coaster year, to keep our school going, for the fantastic children we work with.

As well as working with and on the land, growing incredible produce and continuing our long standing goals to restore and nurture the land around us, and pass that knowledge and experience onto others.

Our courses, events and produce all go to support the young people we work with daily and any and all support is massively appreciated and valued.

Yesterday we took our students out foraging for autumn coloured leaves, seeds and flowers to create our own flower pressed 'stained glass' window hangings!

It was such a fantastic way to watch how the seasons change through the year, and get out for some fresh air on a lovely warm November day!
