Middle Ground Growers

Available for over a year

Anna Louise Claydon visits the Middle Ground Growers in the village of Bathampton near Bath - four friends who set out on a mission to create an ecological farm on their two-acre market garden. After a successful crowdfunding campaign, which raised over £100,000, they’ve just realised their dream of expanding onto a new 16-acre plot, enabling them to supply vegetables to hundreds of families and local outlets. Anna meets Hamish, one of the founding members, to explore the original site where the journey began. She also takes a look at the brand new farm, Weston Spring Park, to see how the team are settling in. She meets their new apprentices, and gets stuck into the jobs list for the day. The funds have been raised, they've got the keys to the new farm, but the real work starts now. Produced and presented by Anna Louise Claydon.
