An honest anti-brand

Agrarian Renaissance aims to build a national brand made up of independent enterprises founded to create great farming, great food and a better life for less.

It will do that by connecting customers, farmers, entrepreneurs and landowners to start new enterprises and by developing the systems, processes and products which those enterprises need.

It will be based upon solid principles about how we need to farm and feed ourselves, and it will be democratically run – jointly controlled by the customers who choose to become members and the farmers who take up licenses, on a one member one vote basis.

The foundation of the brand will be:

- a groundswell of individuals pledging to be conscious customers buying from and creating food and farming enterprises that are re-localised, sustainable, resilient and ecological.

- a nationwide network of thousands of sustainable farm-based enterprises providing ethical, ecological food directly to people.

- a sexy new agrarianism sweeping the country as people reconnect with land and food and build new communities and economies.

- a realistic, coherent alternative to corporate agri-business and supermarket consumerism.

So we will create an alternative which is as viable a choice in the popular consciousness as is the choice between any two existing supermarkets. But it will be based on something entirely different - a reality rather than a perception.

So it will not just be a brand, but an honest anti-brand.
