    I have watched the film and bought the book, now comes the podcast! Richard and Claire are doing a really great job of building and expanding this inspirational story. The guests such as Temple Grandin and Gabe Brown are at the very tip of visionary thinking in this field (excuse the pun!).

    I have just listened to the episode on soil and look forward to working backwards with the previous episodes. Lovely questions from children about worms. Please do an episode on soil microbes very soon.

  • Great podcast 😊👍🏼

    I watched the documentary and then discovered this amazing podcast. I’ve listened to three episodes and each has been truly enlightening. The coffee episode has made me decide to buy more responsibly- I’ll get educated and informed. Even if I go down to one really good cup a day.

    Thank you, keep up the good work

  • Starting at the top of this grain growing job.

    You couldn’t get a better hat-full of speakers. Each working at the top level in their fields (sorry!). Great to see Anna develop her knowledge and ambition for her farm and the practices Andrew started. The processors and supply chain are catching up and starting to market the benefits of both our grains and nature we nurture on our farms. Win-win.
