In Search of a Forever Farm

Available for over a year

James and Isobel Wright are in search of a new farm tenancy. They've applied for numerous places, but so far haven't been successful - and with a toddler and a second baby on the way, they want a degree of long term security. They've written to land agents, they've sent 6,000 flyers out locally - but haven't found anything they feel would work for them. Charlotte Smith visits the couple on their current farm in Sussex to hear their story, and find out about the challenges tenant farmers across the country are facing.
