I know them

I let them have a few Roussins to get started and take over some grazing close to them suitable for sheep only

They've worked hard both with full time jobs until recently and have built up quite a social media following and considerable media interest even in Scotland and far away places

Didn't like a recent post showing a cartoon of a sprayer with dead birds amongst the growing crops

The grazing didn't stay sheep only for long.

Gaining lot of popularity and it’s a great thing in terms of biodiversity and holistic style management BUT like all things some firms are jumping on it purely as marketing spiel.
You can not market something that just a generic word.
Anyone can say they are regenerative and be doing more harm to the environment than good!

Fake grass for lawns is also gaining popularity. That doesn't mean its any good!
