Over the farm gate podcast – Managing complexity

 

If you’ve been listening to our Farming With Nature series (or reading about it in the mag) you’ll have heard us talk about seeing the farm as an ecosystem. In this episode, we dig deeper into this concept and how to manage the complexity and diversity that this brings. Jez Fredenburgh talks to Caroline Grindrod, a former conservationist and previous tenant farmer in the Dales and Lakes, who has spent years exploring how to integrate farming and nature through systems. Caroline has trained in holistic management with the Savory Institute and is the founder of Roots of Nature, where she works with farmers as a regenerative farming consultant and coach.
