Rochdale Grower Looking for a Practical Land Opportunity
Rochdale Grower Looking for a Practical Land Opportunity
Luke is a passionate home grower who has been developing his skills through a year-long Regenerative Agriculture Scheme at Henbant Permaculture, Wales, and is now looking for land to start a market garden.
Luke is looking for a land opportunity near Rochdale, which could be within a reasonable distance from Manchester, Halifax, Huddersfield, Todmorden, Hebden Bridge, or Oldham. He is looking for an opportunity to start small with his own investment and gradually develop and scale, building on proven success.
Luke initially got into growing on his balcony in London and learned just how much could be grown from a small space. Having now relocated, he hopes to find an opportunity where he can grow beyond the limits of his garden and begin selling his produce locally.
He would like to work with a supportive landowner who understands that he wants to gradually develop an enterprise over time and learn from the land. The landowner must share his vision for more people to learn to grow and ultimately eat healthy, locally produced food.
