New Forest Aquaponics CIC

During the last 3 months of 2023 I took part in the My Food Community course run by the Soil Association. The aim of the course is to bring together people who are involved with food systems in the UK to look at how things can be changed to make the landscape of food more sustainable and fair in the UK. 

I was really privileged to take part, I felt the course was  very much above my pay grade ( I don't get paid for my work with the waterside food project) and the other participants all seemed to work for big charities, or food partnerships or councils.

One of the connections I made was Darren Squires who produces the Eat the System podcast.  It looks at all aspects of the UK food systems, listening to his back episodes has been really interesting.

I was very honoured when he asked if he could interview David and myself about our work with New Forest Aquaponics CIC. 

So here it is our first joint podcast interview! 

I think it explains quite well what we are doing and how we are doing it.

A huge thank you to Darren for asking us and his excellent editing skills, and to Rob Green for helping with the sound tech at our end. 

I hope you enjoy and would love to know what ypu think.
