Little Gransden Village Hall, Sandy

The film follows the story of three new farmers in the first year of their journey and one of those three farmers is the amazing Adrienne Gordon, from Sweetpea Market Garden, who has been a trader at The Gransdens Farmers Market from day one. Adie’s market garden is at Caxton and we were all delighted when she completed the first stage of her journey achieving full organic accreditation for her production. If you haven’t yet met Adrienne, she brings salads, vegetables and microgreens to the market which are packed with flavour and goodness.  

Nightingale Farm is a very local smallholding aiming to produce traditional British breed meats with the best welfare standards and with the ultimate goal of creating a farm that captures more carbon than it emits. The Gransdens Farmers Market runs on the fourth Sunday of the month and brings together a fabulous array of produce, with a focus on local and sustainable.  Rachel and Andy from Nightingale Farm will be trading at next year's market with their locally produced Tamworth sausages. Together, we are delighted to partner with local producers to offer you a screening of the film at Little Gransden Village Hall on Friday 29th November with our evening starting from 6.00pm.

An inspiring story of British farmers standing up against the industrial food system and transforming the way they produce food – to heal the soil, benefit our health and provide for local communities. With excellent production values difficult concepts are broken down in thoughtful ways and it is hard to believe that this film can be watched without feeling the urge do something and to contribute to moving things in the right direction. There are a myriad of ways to support a sustainable future, if each of us just made a few small changes this will have a massive effect. A very engaging and enjoyable watch.
