How many people actually know a farmer these days?

One of the biggest failings in our food system is the disconnect it has created between farmers and consumers.

Most of the food produced on UK farms today ends up on a supermarket shelf, often hundreds of miles from its source. An invisible wall has been built between the farmers that produced it and the people who buy it and eat it. As a result, most people have no idea where their food really came from, or how it was produced.

So how can people possibly understand and value the work and the care a farmer puts into producing meat, milk, vegetables, eggs, or other food, when the individual farmers can no longer be identified?

When you buy direct from a farmer you can get to know them and you can ask questions about how they farm, the crops they grow, the animals they keep. This means you can make more informed choices and directly support the kind of farms you want to support.

Produce & Provide believes that every farmer deserves recognition for the work they do and food they produce. Whether they sell at the farm gate or supply a major supermarket. Every farmer has a name and they should not be anonymous in our food system.

Farmers must take the initiative and use every opportunity to engage with the public. Together we can establish those connections between farmers and consumers that are vital to safeguarding the future of British farming, our food choices and food security.

WALK.... don't run!

It occurred to me whilst checking the calves today, that this could be quite a daunting task for most.

Cattle are curious.

They'll often head towards you to say hello and see what's going on. If you jump about or run, they'll 100% think it's playtime and tussle back or give chase.

If you ever find yourself out on a walk and surrounded by cows, try to keep calm.

Stand tall, speak calmly, and keep moving at a steady walking pace.

Most of the time they're simply being nosey and want to investigate the strange human in their field.

Avoid sudden movements, don't wave your arms about, and whatever you do, don't run. To a curious cow, a running person can look like an invitation to join in.

If you have a dog with you and the cattle become overly interested, it's often safest to let the dog off the lead. A dog can usually outrun cattle and will often make its own way clear, allowing you to get to the gate or fence.

This is especially important around cows with calves. Mothers can be very protective and will see a dog as a threat, even when they're perfectly relaxed around people. Let the dog go — it'll almost certainly be quicker and more agile than the cattle so will run, taking the cattle away from you too

Remember: they are usually far more interested in finding out who you are than causing you any trouble. The calmer you are, the calmer they're likely to be🚶‍♂️🐄

🤠 👏 🥩 We did a thing! 🌱 🚜 ☕

On sunday, we held a very small-scale Open Farm Sunday event to help launch our new education, health and wellbeing project.

There wasn't a fancy farm tour or a packed programme of events planned this time around. Instead, we simply opened the gate, put the kettle on, and invited people to come and share a brew with us.

We were incredibly grateful to everyone who popped in throughout the day. Some stayed for five minutes, others for much longer, but every conversation mattered.

The space we're hoping to develop is currently little more than a blank canvas, and that's exactly why the day was so important.

We wanted to hear directly from the people who might use it in the future. We talked about growing food, learning new skills, improving wellbeing, connecting with nature, reducing isolation, and creating opportunities for people of all ages to come together.

There were plenty of ideas, lots of encouragement, and some fantastic suggestions that will help shape the project as it develops.

This is only the beginning. There is still a lot of work to do, funding to secure, and infrastructure to build, but today's conversations reminded us why we're doing it.

Thank you to everyone who came along, shared their thoughts, and supported the idea. We look forward to keeping you updated as the project grows from concept to reality.

Watch this space... 🌱

If you'd like to be part of the journey, we'd love to hear from you. Whether you can volunteer your time, donate materials, offer equipment, share expertise, or support the project through your business, every contribution will help bring this community space to life.
