R2Kast 385 β Tim May on reinventing farming with partnerships, PitchUp, and a new model for estates
Description
Today I welcome Tim May onto the R2Kast! ποΈ A fourth-generation farmer from Hampshire, Tim has transformed Kingsclere Estate into something far beyond a traditional farm. πΎ
We hear how his Nuffield Scholarship inspired him to shift from 100 percent arable into a mixed regenerative system, bringing livestock back and building a network of partners rather than employees. Tim shares his vision of farming as a platform for multiple businessesβfrom roaming dairies and hens to rental units and food ventures. ππ
Our conversation dives into PitchUp, his innovative way of inviting entrepreneurs onto the farm to co-create circular economies. Tim speaks with honesty about change, family legacy, and the challenge of redefining what a farm can be. π
It is a story of reinvention, resilience, and bold thinking about the future of food and land use. π±β¨
Enjoy! π
