"Worm charmers, carbon capturers, wildflower whisperers, insect allies:
regenerative farmers and fishers are working with nature, up and down the UK,
in a way that honours tradition.

Now, the We Feed The UK arts project and an accompanying book profile 10 of
those that are leading the way, from Black-led growing projects in London to a
majority-women workers cooperative in Edinburgh.

Rowan Phillimore and Ally Nelson from The Gaia Foundation, the charity behind
the project, refer in their introduction to the book to Nobel prize-winning
chemist Ilya Prigogine.

“He said that ‘when a complex system is far from equilibrium, small islands of
coherence in a sea of chaos have the capacity to shift the entire system to a
higher order’,” they wrote.“The stories in this book are such ‘islands of
coherence’”."
