"May I suggest that we all meet at the farm after the market at 4pm as that leaves the majority of the day free. I would open the "discussion" up and spread the word. 60 people maximum and would be good if people would let us know if they…"

Farm Shops - Warborne - The F and M Project

I have read the comments on this site regarding Warborne and have spoke to kate at the farm a few weeks ago when I first heard the news. The issue of farm shops has been a challenge for more than 30 years for councils and farmers around the UK. Sadly the rules appear to interpreted in different ways and even sadder is that shops selling truly local produce tend to be the ones to lose out. The changing move towards recognising issues such as peak oil, climate change, food security, rural…See More

That would be great. Give me a few possible dates over the next couple weeks and I'll try to find one that fits. This week I'm busy until Friday, but I think I'm fairly free next week and the week after.

Brilliant - let me know how I can help. Can easily drop into the shop more or less any time to help navigation of the site etc. As you know, the aim of the Food Challenge is to move towards a local food summit next summer. We can certainly work together on that.

Sure thing, Ian. I've read the article and now need to take a proper look at your e-mail. I'm available most evenings after 5:30 and on weekends. I can get over your side, but it'll have to be around bus times.

Once it's a bit more presentable (hopefully next week) I'll invite you to the Southampton Local Food group ning page as well.
