- MONEY REALLY DOESN'T GROW ON TREES. I KNOW, I'M A MARKET GARDENER
“According to [Riverford] research, 61% of farmers fear having to give up their farm in the next 18 months” writes Lizzie Rivera, Wicked Leeks. And for us that fear has become a reality. We are humbly joining the farmers that have had to “give up” in an unforgiving climate. Earlier this year, following a family death, we were pushed into making the choice to leave the farm . Despite the gravity of this decision, it has then opened space for reflection and asking ourselves - does this market garden really work for our finances, health and family?
