Andy Cato is one half of the electric music duo Groove Armada, who in 2007 sold his music rights and ploughed the profits into a piece of land in the Pyrenees. His inspiration? A sobering article on the environmental consequences of food production, at the end of which it said. “If you don’t like it, don’t depend upon it.” Taking those words literally, he spent twelve lonely, challenging years experimenting with ways to grow food and regenerate the soil. In 2018, recognised by the French President for his services to farming, he returned to the UK to set up Wildfarmed, supporting other farmers by developing collectives to deliver farm to plate at scale. He has even taught Jeremy Clarkson a thing or two. For Cato there is no debate; its not wilding or farming. It’s a great big AND. This podcast is bought to you by The Resurgence Trust.
