Thanks for coking along Anthony, & for being a great supporter over the years 😊

Spent a magical few hours walking around @gorse_farm for a @TalamhBeo event as part of @IrishEnvNet National Biodiversity Week.

we should be deeply concerned about this and need some solid policy moves on it. Access to land is one of the biggest risks to the future of farming. We associate land grabs with the global south (and that’s a huge issue) but it’s happening here too. Green grabs are a big concern

One of the initiatives we love to support - the Feeding Ourselves Community of Practice - has a newsletter out - so check it out! Jam packed full of news and events, on land, on knowledge, on local food policy - and an upcoming webinar - it's all here: https://t.co/PcGqkvi9mQ

A successful first Biodiversity week Farm walk today (in association with @talamhbeo & @irishenvnet) where we shared how and why we are passionate local food producers! #biodiversityweek2024 @ioa @OrgGrowersIre #localfoodpolicy

"One of the slow scandals of Ireland is the way we have allowed those waterways to deteriorate...Much of this deterioration has been caused by the pollution of rivers with nitrates from waste water, cattle urine and fertiliser run-off." https://t.co/O5LLYoOl21

Few more days for us growers to make ourselves heard and be counted!

Looking forward to attending this event!

The Organic & Small Growers survey closes on Monday 15th April at 11pm. If you haven't already taken part, don't delay! Please share the survey with other organic & small growers you know. The more growers that take part, the more visible we'll be. 👉 https://t.co/r1Ai3UEvzi

In today's @IrishTimesOpEd, my colleague @SadhbhO lays out @foeireland's central message to @SimonHarrisTD who has named "security" as one of his key priorities as Taoiseach: "If he's serious about security, climate change needs to be top of his agenda". https://t.co/Cei1u3BU4s

Feeding Ourselves Gathering Day 2 focused on local food economies & food hubs. Some great panels, workshops & discussions happening all day. w John Brennan Drumshambo Food Hub, Imelda Mullen Green Box Cavan, Janet Power @gorse_farm @TalamhBeo, Beth Bell @FoodEthicsNews Belfast.

Aha, thought I smelled a 🐀 here on TwiX, have been bombarded with these recently, while reach of my own tweets has been dramatically throttled & new followers dropping to virtually zero. That’ll be Mr Elmo Freezepeach in action, no doubt.

The ferry has finally arrived at Cherbourg. Now the calves will be on their way to a control post where they will be unloaded and wait their turn for feeding, which takes over 8 hours. Do the maths. Some of these calves will be deprived of feed for over 35 hours. @StenaLineUKIE

Truck after truck seen arriving at @Rosslareuroport this afternoon full of bawling calves. The first truck was seen at 14:15 and the ferry has just left, nearly 5 hrs later. How long have those calves already gone without feed? @StenaLineUKIE doesn't give a sh*t. #BanLiveExports
