Young islanders share their experiences of taking part in educational projects, from growing, to cooking, to field to fork, before being joined by local facilitators. What inspires young people to be more engaged with the food they eat and where it comes from? What are they most curious about? What are the impacts of incorporating food and farming in education?

“In 2015 I grew an acre of April Bearded wheat in Devon. I scythed it, threshed it, and milled it by hand. What that year taught me was not a technique but a relationship: that a field of wheat is not a factory floor, it is a community of soil organisms, fungi, insects, weather and human attention, all metabolising sunlight together. When Stephan Harding taught me at Schumacher College that Gaia is not a metaphor but a description — that the Earth behaves as a single self-regulating living system — the acre made sense. Every loaf is a conversation with that system. The only question is whether the conversation is honest.”

Andrew now makes artisan pasta and biscuits using freshly milled heritage and population wheats, sourced from regional organic farms. Find out more about Andrew’s journey, what motivates him and why we need a cultural shift that moves away from the commodity.

What happens when you choose to invest in your own supply of food? Over 9000 citizens have done just that and become decision makers in the supply chain.

Herenboeren (People's Farming) is a revolutionary citizen owned farming model that is spreading across the Netherlands and reshaping European agriculture. Each farm is owned by approximately 250 households. Herenboeren highlights how community-backed agriculture can secure stable incomes for farmers, while returning food autonomy directly to citizens. Join Douwe Korting to find out more! A presentation will be followed by a 20 minute workshop.

A programme pause to take lunch and socialise

Three ambitious projects from the UK and Jersey share their vision for creating training opportunities and pathways into agro-ecological futures.

GroundSchool is a non-profit learning centre for the food and farming community, to share knowledge about regenerative approaches towards food production and teach the skills needed to make them happen.

GROW (UK) is a community focused farm that prioritises children, young people, and families facing barriers to learning, well-being, and the outdoors, with accredited courses and traineeships in mycology, floristry and horticulture.

Cultivate Skills reconnects Jersey’s deep agricultural and horticultural heritage with the emerging enterprise of tomorrow, providing professional development and education that turns aspiring entrepreneurs and hobbyists into professional producers and skilled horticulturists.

Landmatch Jersey is an opportunity for landowners and those looking for land to connect with one another.

You might be a landowner looking for somebody to farm your land in a nature-friendly way

You may also be a farmer, looking to share your land with other farmers or enterprises.

You might have a project idea, but need a farmer.

You might be a charity looking for a community growing space.

You might be a large community of people wanting to buy a farm together.

You might be a farmer needing more land to expand your operations

You might want to start a market garden or smallholding

You might not know what you want!

Sometimes it can be hard to know where to start.

The launch of Landmatch Jersey seeks to explore what support landowners and land seekers may need to ensure that land match projects get off to the right start, while sharing some useful insights. It is an opportunity to share our questions and reservations, as well as our visions and ambitions. Building trust and preparing to enter into a working relationship can take time. We do not expect that matches will be made at our launch, but we don’t discount it either.

Landmatch Jersey will seek to connect people with programmes that support new entrants with training and access to markets, community food-growing initiatives and opportunities for those who feel excluded from farming to take their place in shaping our food future. We aims to support farming systems that work with nature, regenerate soil, protect water, foster biodiversity, build climate resilience, provide rural livelihoods and create local food networks.
