Occupation: Grower for CHW


Involvement in CHW/how long have you been a crop sharer: Became a CHW cropsharer in 2014. Have been with the community supported agriculture movement since 1993 when on the core group committee of Roxbury Biodynamic CSA, the first in New York City, as well as Swillington Organic Farm CSA.

Favourite CHW vegetable: Most definitely, without hesitation, sweetcorn. Am also partial to spinach, asparagus, French beans and tomatoes.

Any other information: Other interests are involvement with the Leicester Trinity Methodist Circuit, my allotment, fishing for pike, cooking, theology, looking for bits of archaeology when the ground’s been rotavated.
