Be The Change series: Episode 4 talking with Simon Hare

June 11, 2026 • Liz Genever and Nic Renison

Be The Change is a new project that Carbon Calling are running. It focuses on three farmers - Sarah Bell, Alan Robinson and Liz Hargreaves. Specific farm plans are being created by working with lots of different organisation and people from within our community. We are doing a series of podcasts with the people involved.

For this month, we talk to Simon Hare, who is Alan's grazing mentor. We talk about his system and the changes that are happening, how he is supporting Alan and then we get personal about his diet and health. Liz is off to eat more protein and Nic is going to lift heavier.
