It is no secret that farming needs to attract fresh talent, and there are so many opportunities for people to find a career that suits them. This is the case for Jack Scott who, after attending an Open Farm Sunday at Emma Loder-Symonds farm, Nonington farms. Emma's passion is education and allowing people of all ages to experience what it's like on-farm; she wants to highlight food, nature and careers. After meeting Emma, Jack has now pursued his passion for agriculture and set up his own business on a small parcel of Nonington's land. He also won BBC Countryfile's Young Countryside Champion in November 2023 which is testament to his dedication and determination to make a life for himself in the industry.
