Touring the fields

The Operations Group at work

At the last Members Meeting – back in February –  we decided to change ‘All Hands’ Saturdays to – Monthly Members Meetings on the first Saturday in each month.  A key part of this session was to be a tour of the fields, so that members got a chance to see what we are growing, find out more about how we grow… before putting on the kettle.  And then – lockdown arrived – so we’ve had a few months where this hasn’t been possible.  Now things are easing we plan to give this a try, the next MMM will be Saturday, 1st August.

In the meantime, our Operations Group have had a couple of field tours.  The Ops Group is there to support the Growers, find out what needs extra attention and help problem solve.  Here they are in action.

Sign up for our quarterly Newsletter – Veg Matters and keep up to date with GO Local Food.  Check our events page for future field tours.
