In this episode, we speak to Alice Holden, Farmitect at Sitopia Farm, an Urban Farm in Barking and Dagenham.
Alice has over 20 years of experience working on organic farms of various types and scales. Since 2012, she has been Head Grower at Growing Communities’ Dagenham farm and led the transformation of a disused ex-council nursery site into a productive peri-urban, organic, urban farm.
Her work shows that urban farming can successfully combine environmental and community benefits, making her the perfect guest for our new episode of Urban Forecast.
