Hi there,
As part of a Masters of Environment at the University of Melbourne, I am running a small research project, which will focus on the strategies that growers use, in managing ecological and social goals, while working to make a living in commercial vegetable farming.
It would be great to hear from established market gardeners, working, for example, to use biological processes to regenerate soil health and agrobiodiversity, in order to grow healthy produce and maintain a viable livelihood. A diversity of growers, using a range of farming and practices and marketing models, will be surveyed by interview. Do you know a grower who might be able to help with this study?
Please email :- lhoare@student.unimelb.edu.au
to receive further information, after which you might like to register your interest in participating.
Feel free to ask questions, share this message and get in touch.
Thanks very much!
Lynda
