I am interested in working with other members on
Political advocacy for nature, climate, and food production. Support for farmers to repurpose unproductive farmland for climate and biodiversity, and to use productive farmland for sustainable, plant-based food production. Livestock reduction.
About me
I have a degree in Veterinary Medicine from the University of Edinburgh and an MSc in Sustainable Food and Natural Resources from the Centre for Alternative Technology. My background was initially in conventional livestock agriculture until my family farm transitioned into stockfree vegetable production. Since then I have worked on a range of small and largescale horticultural enterprises across the UK and more recently worked as a Land Management Advisor for Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park Authority. In my role at Stockfree Farming I provide comprehensive support to farmers who wish to transition away from livestock agriculture into alternative forms of land management.
