Hi @Riverford . The work you do is so amazing. Do you know when you'll be accepting new veg box orders again? (Also yay that so many people want to eat this way that you've had to close new orders!) ☺️
Ever wondered how fertilisers and pesticides are doing to our #SoilHealth and #ecosystems? Well I wrote a blog post on it 😊 #regenerativeagriculture amymason.me/chemical-farming…
"Freshwater insects, mosses and lichens are bucking the trend of wildlife losses in the UK and have expanded their ranges since 1970" At last, some good #biodiversity news :)

New report estimates that the world will lose $479 billion per year due to loss of #biodiversity and #ecosystem services. Even more evidence for #regeneration fastcompany.com/90463133/by-…
Contender for most English #train announcement ever? "I'm just waiting for my tea urn to hear up before I can do an at-seat service"
Fantastic news from the UK this week. I look forward to more policy detail in due course. #regenerativeagriculture #AgricultureBill #SoilHealth bbc.co.uk/news/science-envir…

OK, so this is what we're going to do.
We double down on support/giving networks for the people this government is going to dump on. It won't make up for the failures of the state, but we'll do our best.
We support each other with love and strength through the dark times

Because there's a linear relationship between the amount of money you have and the environmental damage you inflict, in this week's column I propose something that might horrify you. Setting a limit on wealth. theguardian.com/commentisfre…
