Original Video

In this episode, Mel and Mark get real about the state of farming and food in the UK today - not from headlines or think tanks, but from lived experience, grassroots projects, and conversations on the ground with thousands of people. Mark shares what he learned after traveling 10,000 miles, visiting farmers, communities, and local projects - and what became clear is this:

The public wants real, local, chemical-free food.
Farmers want to grow it.
We just need to reconnect the two.

We talk about:
How supermarkets and policy systems are pushing farmers into impossible corners
The decline in soil health - and the solutions already working
The launch of FoodFindersHub.org, a new platform to link farmers, growers and volunteers
Community farms, land sharing, and rebuilding local food networks
The public support for farmers that most farmers don’t even know exists
This isn’t doom and collapse.
This is the rebuilding - and it’s already happening.
If you’ve felt something shifting… this episode confirms it.
