In this episode I am joined by Liam from "WhatsGrowinOn".
He is sharing his story of getting into permaculture, starting on a farm halfway across the globe where he was left to his own devices, to growing
in a London apartment and finally moving to his own farm in Cornwall to get serious and make growing food his life.
Liam shares the ups and downs of farming, what he has learned throughout the years and how he is adapting to living in an isolated place in the countryside.
We explore the differences between grocery store and self-grown food and why it is incredibly confusing to know what the way to
"buy better" is, when we are standing in front of the produce shelves in a store.
If you are thinking of starting to grow at home🌱👨🏽🌾👩🏽🌾 Liam has a YouTube Channel and a TikTok account where he takes you through composting,
growing tomatoes, hydroponics, experimenting with Quartz and many other things that you may find incredibly helpful to start your own journey.
Moving away and leaving an "old life" behind to start your own business can be very challenging.
Farming is a hands-on job and we need so many more food growers out there that grow regeneratively, take care of the land and feed surrounding communities!
Let's take a moment to give it up for Liam's efforts and for putting a dream into action!
and if you want to really support him you can donate to his GoFundMe here to help him get the farm flourishing🌿🌿
Here is the Square foot garden technique Liam talks about - have fun 🌱
thank you for listening💚
I appreciate your eager ears👋🏼
Yours,
Stella
