“You may consider yourself just a smallholder, but are you really a ‘quiet but potent eco-warrior’? It’s possible.
John Walker, author of How to Create an Eco Garden: The Practical Guide to Greener, Planet-friendly Gardening, sees smallholders as occupying a unique niche in a strand that starts with gardeners and ends with organic farmers. ‘I’m convinced that as we start getting to grips with real ecologically driven challenges, such as food security, smallholders will become an even more vital part of a locally woven food, materials, skills web that will help buffer us all against bumpy times ahead.'”
