Part 5. 

On our quest to explore what resilience in our food and farming systems can look like beyond coronavirus, we have travelled to the indigenous regions of Tharaka in Kenya and Bikita in Zimbabwe. Here, we learnt that through the revival of traditional governance systems, seeds and indigenous cosmologies these communities have begun on a journey to true local resilience. But how does this translate to the context of the UK? To continue on our quest for resilience, in this episode, we hear from two young women farmers, Katie Hastings and Kate Roberts, who tell us about how in Wales, the revival of heritage seeds has sent them on a journey to unlock Welsh cultural history and find resilience in local seed diversity.
