In 2015 I travelled around England and Wales visiting people who are producing food in ways which are actively regenerative of the earth, the environment and community. They form a loose web of environmental action. Here, food production is destined for local markets, organic, small in scale, diverse, low in energy use, high in animal welfare. It is everything that factory farming is not, yet in choosing to grow in this way the practitioners are not opting for an easy way out. The life is demanding with motivation driven by an activist belief that change can only come from us individually choosing to live better lives. In choosing such a life, these people are writing the story of an agrarian renaissance and fuelling hope for a future. Daring to think and live alongside, but out-with, the norms of society, they throw the gauntlet down to the rest of us.
