Publisher's Synopsis
This is an anthology of writing from people who are engaged in practical, hands-on work to transform land, food and farming systems in the UK at grassroots level. They are bound together by a passion for understanding how land use and ownership shape not only agriculture but also the character of rural communities and the country at large. Many have first-hand experience of the challenges inherent in mainstream farming, food production and resource management, and the difficulties faced by those who seek to do things differently. But these are hopeful stories, offering a credible and compelling vision of what life in a rural future might look like.
