Welcome back to another interview from the skill exchange calls that Iā€™ve been running with Climate Farmers for our regenerative farming network in Europe. 

This is one of the many community building activities that Iā€™ve been organising to help to connect farmers around Europe to some of the best emerging information available, and to get their most important questions answered from our experts around the world. 

In this session I had the chance to speak with Charles Dowding in Somerset in England. Many of you may already know Charles as an innovative gardener and author of nine books on caring for soil as well as productive ways to grow food with less weeding through no-dig management. At Homeacres, his small, intensive market garden Charles teaches, runs experiments and above all produces delicious food. Based on his experience of growing vegetables without tillage for 35 years he shows people from all walks of life how to grow more easily, enjoyably and in a time-efficient way. 

Before we get started I want to remind all of you who would be interested in attending one of these skill exchange calls live in the future, all you have to do is be a registered farmer in Europe to receive the invitations and call links that we have coming up. Iā€™m planning the next session with Nigel Palmer, author of the book ā€œThe Regenerative Growers Guide to Garden Amendmentsā€ later this month, so donā€™t wait too long. You can register now at climatefarmers.org
