SKYEGROVE - Key Persons
I have farmed all my life, both in the UK and New Zealand. Throughout my life I've had a passion for growing vegetables and being as self sufficient as possible.
On returning to Cornwall from New Zealand I wanted to be part of a change in the way we live on our planet, and I worked for 18 years at the Eden Project mainly as the Crops Supervisor of the Crop Exhibits and later as Estates Supervisor. I deem it an honour to have been an integral part of it's evolution.
I am passionate about traditional land management methods and promoting the use of handheld tools where possible; scything, hedge-laying, woodland management, and setting up traditional hay-meadows. Also hoping to help the revival of these lost crafts where man and nature worked in harmony, without reliance on the oil industry.
