Welcome to Down to Earth, (previously From the Ground Up) a podcast brought to you by Young Country.

This is a podcast for the go getters, the big dreamers, the innovators of the primary sector.

I’m your host Rebecca Greaves, and we’re taking a closer look at people in the primary industries who have dared to think big, push the limits and give it a go in business.

We’ll be asking them what the catalyst was to take the plunge and make a change.

We find out how they got to where they are now, what they’ve learned along the way, and what their advice is to other aspiring agri-innovators.

So, settle in and listen up as we serve you a healthy dose of inspiration, motivation, and maybe even challenge your thinking a little.

Episode 6 - Charlotte Bell, The Clip NZ

Standing on the sideline watching her daughter play rugby in winter, Charlotte Bell thought she’d love to have a warm wool coat to wear. When she searched, she couldn’t find what she was after, so she decided to create her own.

Charlotte and her husband Hamish and their two girls Alexis (8) and Zoe (6) live on their sheep and beef farm at Cattle Creek in the Hakataramea Valley, South Canterbury.

Using Romney ewe lamb’s wool sourced from their farm, Charlotte started The Clip in 2019, creating stylish, functional and warm wool coats that will stand the test of time.

“The Clip was born from a cold winter’s day, wool prices obviously have been terrible for a long time, and we started brainstorming what we could do with it to try to increase revenue from the wool side of the business,” she says.
