- Be The Change is a new project that Carbon Calling are running. It focuses on three farmers - Sarah Bell, Alan Robinson and Liz Hargreaves. Specific farm plans are being created by working with lots of different organisation and people from within our community. We are doing a series of podcasts with the people involved.
For this month, we talk to Henry Russell, who is a regenerative adviser (https://www.russellregen.com/) and was worked with Liz and Rob on the recent Farming in Protected Landscapes funded project looking at Maximum Sustainable Output analysis. Liz talks to Tarja, who works for the Forest of Bowland National Lanscape, about her involvement with the farm and the breeding wader survey.
We talk a bit about the event at Liz and Rob's on the 9th of July.
