Lynne O'Halloran

Graham Harvey spent 34 years guiding the story-lines in the world famous Radio 4 soap opera, The Archers and is also a well-respected journalist who has written five books of his own on the themes of climate change, food quality and farming. Right now he is on the board of the Somerset Food Trails Festival which runs annually every year with the aim of bringing Somerset's organic and regenerative farmers and food producers into direct contact with the count's  residents and visitors via two weeks of events, workshops, dining experiences and farm tours.

Listen as I chat to Graham about his passion for organic farming methods and foods and also about his time as a writer and Agricultural Story Editor on that hugely famous English institution, The Archers. Graham also plugs is new book, which is fair enough! It sounds like a great read!
