A Young Farmer Reflects on Transition Initiatives, Peak Oil and the Prince of Wales’ Food and Farming Summer School.
I wrote a while ago about the Prince of Wales’ Food and Farming Summer School which I taught on during the summer. It was a fascinating event, bringing together a wide range of people to explore the question “what is sustainable food?” The National Federation of Young Farmers Clubs sent two members along for the event, and it was interesting to read recently an article about the Summer School by Gloucestershire dairy farmer and YFC member Rob Harrison, in which he reflects on the impact the event, and in particular the session on peak oil and Transition Initiatives had on him.
