Being spring on the farm we may see a chick hatching or a calf \u00a0being born\u00a0if we are very lucky!<\/p>\n

Stewart and Bee have \u00a0provided most of\u00a0their\u00a0own meat, vegetables, fruit, nuts, herbs, condiments, bread and dairy produce from this land for 30 years and\u00a0are keen to share \u00a0the really useful\u00a0permaculture design principals\u00a0which \u00a0start with an ethic ….care of Earth and care of people. We have created a day\u00a0especially for those who \u00a0have decided to withdraw their support\u00a0from multinational agribusiness \/ pharmaceutical corporations by simply\u00a0refusing\u00a0to buy their “food”.<\/p>\n

If \u00a0GMOs, pesticides, food additives, nanno particles, hormones, irradiation, and antibiotics, all packaged up\u00a0in gaily coloured plastic\u00a0and delivered via fossil fuel are not for you; \u00a0 if you believe there must be a way \u00a0we can eat ,without adding\u00a0huge toxic loads to our air, water and soil, then \u00a0please join us. Meet \u00a0others on the same path and pick up many helpful ideas<\/p>\n
