The Agrarian Renaissance is founded on a shared intention: "To do all that we can to buy direct from and create food and farming enterprises that enhance life."
The Agrarian Renaissance exists to help anyone who shares that intention to act towards it, together. You can join now and invest in the movement from only ten pounds.
The Bee will bring conscious customers and responsible enterprises together under an umbrella brand which will represent a major and significant disruptive intervention in the food and lifestyles sector, that radically changes both farming and our wider culture and economy.
There are six ways to act if we are to create the Agrarian Renaissance - as farmers, entrepreneurs and landowners on the supply side; as customers and members of both local groups and national organisations on the demand side.
We don't have 'The Answer'. We do have massive intentions, a one year plan and a gathering group of farmers, entrepreneurs, experts and New Agrarians. If we bring together conscious customers with responsible enterprises under an umbrella brand we can create alternatives. We don't need to invent anything, we just need to start doing things differently.
We will invite anyone who shows an interest in the Agrarian Renaisance to meetings and events across the country on farms that are genuinely working to create alternatives. If you own, run, work for, or know of a farm that could be part of this national farm network then let us know about it.
Anyone can invest in the Agrarian Renaissance from ten pounds. Beyond that we are recruiting pioneer investors who invest at least one thousand pounds along with their time, effort, expertise and enthusiasm.
The next year is going to involve a roadshow of events and meetings on farms all around the country. We are forming self-organising groups and new enterprises will be starting, so if you're an enterprising spirit who can help make all this happen, we need to hear from you.
You can sign up now to be a pioneer investor in the Agrarian Renaissance from only £10.
We are also building a farm network and want to hear about any farms that are already offering an alternative direct to customers.
