I am not surprised there is the pushback. The eventual goal is to be corporation dominated. Keep going. The world needs enterprises like this.

So good to see a film that links people care, earth care, food and farming linking in with community and interviews with people that see the whole picture plus so positive about the future thank you heart warming to say the least well done 👏👏👏👏👏👏🤗

Very nice work Propagate . Well done 🙏🏼. We’re watching with interest from Fife where Fife Council and NHS have just signed up to a commitment to create a sustainable food culture for a healthy Fife. Good to share stories and looking forward to seeing you at GO Falkland on 17-18 July Momentum building Time is ripe for transformation

Fantastic. Fields ahead of the rest in Regen. Hope to see you all at Falkland Gathering in July, show us how to do it!

I am so glad I came across this. I am in Portugal and just started out last year planting fruit trees and veg. I am also hoping to set up a more direct, local food network and this has given me many ideas. I sincerely hope it inspires other areas in the UK to do similar things. Brilliant.

So inspiring!

Love this! Thank you, perhaps I can do a cooperative local food system here someday, Victoria, B.C. Canada. In the meanwhile, I grow a lot for food security on a personal level with regenerative techniques and I'm allways learning more. It makes sense to link all the growers together to provide direct to the local community. Inspirational!

Lucy grows so many varieties! You could ask her directly - you can find them on social media if you look up The Plant Farm, Whithorn
