GSB: Food hub Bristol to provide urban farming inspiration as EU Green Capital
Steve Glover doesn’t mind being called an unlikely pioneer of sustainable urban agriculture. A few years ago he didn’t even know how to grow organic vegetables, let alone on a deserted piece of land next to Bristol’s train station.
Today, Glover is supplying high-end local restaurants with vegetables and salads from his farm, the Severn Project. Among his staff, those that grow and pick the produce are recovering drug addicts.
