Field to Front Door – Episode 4 on peonies, weather challenges, direct selling and composting

Today we’re back with Field to Front Door 🎙️David, Martin and Wallace picking things back up again, this time right on the edge of peony season kicking off and everything that comes with it. We covered a mix in this one from the reality of seasonal pressure with peonies and getting everything lined up for harvest, through to weather challenges across the UK and how different things look depending on where you are.There was a really good discussion around direct selling, meat boxes and whether smaller scale, higher value systems actually stack up long term. We also got into social media, building a following and the reality behind it, not just the numbers but the constant effort needed to keep it going.One of the most interesting parts was the chat around regenerative practices and composting. We got into Johnson Sue compost, soil biology, reducing inputs and trying to build systems that work with nature rather than against it.We’re going to keep this going fortnightly for now and see where it takes us. If you’ve got ideas on what we should cover or who we should bring in, send them our way.Enjoy! 🙂 Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
