  • Summary

  • New Foundation Farms is pioneering a fundamental shift in the system that feeds us.

    Too many human beings see themselves as somehow outside nature, not part of it. We believe in the possibility that humans can become a beneficial keystone species on planet Earth.

    We are building a radically natural food system in the UK in which we use methods from permaculture, biodynamic growing, organic and regenerative farming to grow food at scale in a way that has never been done before. 

    The result will be a hyper-local food system that uses stacked enterprises to deeply connect people with a wide variety of produce grown locally, everywhere. 

    It is about becoming indigenous again; not going back to the past, but going forward to  explore the "wisdom of place" that returns us to a positive role in nature.

    New Foundation Farms is a growing team of people who are passionate and inspired, and among the best at what they do in a variety of disciplines ranging from farming and processing to procurement and supply through to organisational architecture and systems thinking. This podcast series explores elements that are needed to help bring this radical natural vision to life though conversation.

    Groundswell is an annual two-day festival of regenerative agriculture that takes place every June on a farm in Hertfordshire. Its a gathering of change in food and farming where farmers, conservationists, ecologists, chefs, agriculture industry representatives as well as financiers and MPs gather, speak and collaborate ideas about how we can transform food and farming into a more planet friendly agro-ecological future.

    This year we decided to film a mini series of friends, movers and shapers of the regenerative movement who are all in one place at one time.

    Episode 10 - Amy Chapple - Redwoods Farm

    Amy Chapple was farming regeneratively before her 20th birthday having worked with The Cherry's on the site of Groundswell Festival before returning to the home farm in Devon. Amy has independently produced pork of the highest quality using a rotational grazing system to bring positive change to the land the pigs live on restoring biodiversity through their actions and has developed a soy-free supplement to top up their nutrition.

    The farm that she shares with her father Mark Chapple is a truly beautiful regenerating space on the edge of Dartmoor.
