The Pull of the Land

from Four Thought · host BBC Radio 4

Nick Ivins explains how the pull of the land turned him from a city dweller into a homesteader."We discovered that great pleasure that is putting food, by one's own hand, on to the family table. It is an act of love wrought by an equal share of creativity and sweated laboour that rewards the head, heart and belly in equal measure."Four Thought was recorded at the End of the Road music festivalProducer: Sheila Cook.
