Community farming

"Pawson manages a community farming scheme on the outskirts of Glastonbury that helps raise awareness among young people about fresh produce. As community grower at Torganics Community Sustainable Agriculture – so called because it is on the north side of the Glastonbury Tor – he encourages people to work on the land in return for a share of the harvest. The three-month old project is supported by the Soil Association and the charity-run Paddington Farm Trust that owns the land."
