]]> Comment on Who We Are by Abingdon Carbon Cutters http://www.campaignforrealfarming.org/who-we-are/#comment-2676 Abingdon Carbon Cutters Mon, 20 Feb 2012 08:53:47 +0000 http://www.piersaitman.co.uk/blog/#comment-2676 Abingdon Carbon Cutters just hosted Colin Tudge talking about his campaign - very inspiring. We are a Community Action Group (CAG) working to help reduce the carbon footprint of Abingdon in response to climate change, and to promote a sustainable and resilient lifestyle for our town as fossil fuel stocks decline. We meet on the third Wednesday of each month and are also involved in the Local Excellence market every quarter. Last year we ran a successful Apple Day in South Abingdon and hope to do the same this year on October 15th.

]]> Comment on Maple Field Milk — the Milking Bail by robyn tuck http://www.campaignforrealfarming.org/2011/11/maple-field-milk-the-milking-bail/#comment-2675 robyn tuck Thu, 16 Feb 2012 16:47:13 +0000 http://www.campaignforrealfarming.org/?p=2258#comment-2675 Thrilled to find your website. please send any info you are happy to share. I am only at the "thinking about it " stage of establishing a mobile dairy My idea would look like a trailer with cooling vat to carry the milk, and generator for the bucket milking machine. bails attached to the trailer (quiet cows essential) For all the reasons above we want to take the machine to the cows. Aiming for raw milk products for our local community. Many people here are fed up with the corporatisation of our food industry and want to reclaim some autonomy. Look forward to finding out about your mobile bails. Regards Robyn Thrilled to find your website. please send any info you are happy to share.
