Jane Scotter produces fruit, veg and flowers on around 12 acres in Herefordshire, and has made a business supplying her specialist products to a London restaurant. Over the years, she has found it almost impossible to find people with the skills required to work on her farm: how to propagate plants, how to drive a tractor, how to care for fruit trees. To try and fill the skills gap she takes on volunteers who have to work hard in return for a hut in one of the fields, fresh produce from the farm, and the chance to learn from Jane. Many of these volunteers go on to be members of paid staff.
