015 Draycott Strawberries and Cream

015 Draycott Strawberries and Cream

This time I chat to Seagers, who are strawberry growers providing some of the highest quality fruit in Draycott.

Father and son combo, Andrew and Chris, talk about :-

  • their strawberries
  • the use of bees for pollination
  • the ups and downs of farming life.

Most importantly they tell me what community means to them.

I am also astounded by the revelation that they once had a surprise visitor to the village – but not in human form!

014 Draycott Willow Artist

Willow is synonymous with the Somerset levels and Draycott Moor.

Sophie Courtiour is by definition a willow artist, but Tiggi finds out she is so much more.

A single mother who built her own eco home, surviving artic weather living in a tent during the build. Having no art training but needing an income, Sophie made hurdles in hazel, which lead to willow.

This is a story of courage, love and hidden talent.
