Ed Scott

Ed is the longstanding harvest and polytunnel manager at Riverford. He says: "I'm interested in the sustainability and biodiversity benefits of organic farming; it's something tangible I can see when visiting the fields or polytunnels. I love exploring Dartmoor when I can: the open spaces really reflect the dynamism of nature, changing from picture-postcard pretty to windswept desolation and back in a matter of minutes."
