This week, Patrick is heading to the Herefordshire home (and farm) of Ben Andrews. Ben is passionate about opening farming up to everyone, from sharing his everyday life on Instagram to co-founding Agrespect, a group specifically for encouraging LGBTQ+ inclusivity in rural communities. His love for the countryside is enough to tempt anyone into a pair of wellies.
During their chat, Ben and Patrick discuss Ben’s childhood on the farm, how rowing shaped his school days and his adventure to (and return from) the big city as a young man.
Listen to this conversation in the countryside below.
From organic Brassica to the sunset glow of Charlotte’s Locks, these are the shades of Ben’s story.
