Backsford Farm, Bickleigh.

At our meeting today I mentioned a speaker from the DFWI meeting last month: here are the details as published in an earlier blog post 

Andrew Hughes gave us a very interesting talk about his work at Backsford Farm, Bickleigh. He mentioned that they run tours of the garden he has created, alongside his wife’s cream teas. (Special note made of this!) https://www.backswood.co.uk/nature-garden-1
