The Black Barn opened its doors to welcome the first of Soil Association‘s New Organic Entrepreneurs to Woodoaks Farm on Friday.
This gathering of great and glorious folk arrived with energy, ideas, shared values and purpose, to kick started a pilot programme that brings together new organic growers and producers, so they can share, learn and thrive into the future.
After lunch, Rose Lewis led the group on a farm walk, which included Woodoaks’ tenant farmer Steve Whitby of Whitby’s Family Farm, one of the new entrepreneurs taking part in the programme.
We felt honoured to host the first meeting of this group and are really excited to see how the programme and entrepreneurs within it develop over the coming months.
