There are now 30 farms taking part in Heytesbury District Landcare Network’s Climate Resilient Farms Project and lots of exciting things have been happening. So, we told the project’s communications specialist, Kirsty Hawkes, to get out there and investigate. Between February and May 2022 Kirsty spent time on six farms interviewing nine farmers. The result is six podcasts, recorded and written by Kirsty and put together by Bruce Campbell. Each episode is no more than 30 minutes and together they cover a range of topics from the benefits of dung beetles, wildlife and multi-species pasture crops to composting, wetland restoration and shelter belts.
