Projects
In 2020 my attentions turned towards creating a network of eco education centres with my business partner Gary Redding (Flo Domes). As with Beacon Hub Brighton CIO land conservation and biodiversity enhancement will be integral to the establishment of each centre. The first project is based on a 3 hectare community regenerative farm in central Portugal. The centres will be managed by our partnership Landtribe.
