AN OASIS
We want our 23 hectares to provide the best produce and food; help tackle climate change and the nature crisis; and provide construction materials, crafts, energy, work, accommodation (including for visitors), learning, public access, community, inspiration and well-being
“Short [food] chains” – means that our food and other farming produce is cooked or crafted on site for eating and selling here or locally.
“Enterprise stacking” – means hosting small land-based business who collaborate to maximise the contribution to and from our 23 hectares.
