Growing Hope Webinar ad 7

We’re looking forward to our second ‘Growing Hope’ webinar at 1pm on Monday 12 May (catch up on the first Growing Hope webinar which had a focus on smaller, local action here). Our 12 May webinar will focus what Churches and faith groups can do on larger plots of land and will include inspiring speakers Hannah Jones from Farm Carbon Toolkit, Simon Gibson, Estate Manager at Lee Abbey and Rhys Evans from Nature Friendly Farming Network. Operation Noah’s Sharon Hall will give more details about our Church Land Use Vision and Open Letter action.

Speakers include:

Hannah Jones, Farm Carbon and Soils Advisor at Farm Carbon Toolkit. Hannah has previously coordinated and carried out research projects spanning herbal leys, arable systems, cover crops and field vegetables.

Simon Gibson, Estate Manager at Lee Abbey Christian Community in Devon. Simon led their recent work planting native trees to extend the rare Atlantic rainforest habitat on their site.

Rhys Evans, Farmer and Wales Manager, Nature Friendly Farming Network. Rhys has been part of a group of ten farmers implementing measures for climate resilience including rewetting peatland and creating new wetland areas.

There will be a chance for Q&A and to find out more about our campaign.
