Organisation

Herefordshire Food Alliance    

Action 

Buy River Friendly Food here in Herefordshire: 

The Food Alliance supports farmers producing food in ways that sustain and build nature. This includes: using cover crops to reduce soil erosion, improving soil health through herbal pasture, and stopping the run-off of dangerous nutrients into waterways by planting 'buffer strips' of meadow.

Training required  

No training needed to purchase good food from good farms; just check the link.  There are however many informative links to help us understand the challenges agriculture and rivers are facing.

Kit needed / provided
