Farmers’ Dialogue wants to demonstrate the link between personal change and commitment and rural and agricultural development.
Who we are
A network of farmers committed to produce the food everyone needs, to care for natural resources and to be a responsible partner in the policy-decision processes about the future of agriculture
Why Farmers’ Dialogue
The world relies on Agriculture to be fed, to eradicate poverty and to protect environment. Farmers can create hope and vision, bring solutions and act on the changes needed personally and globally.
Monica and Colin Haworth are retired fruit growers in Cheshire, England. Monica joined the agricultural chaplaincy team in 2009 following the suicide of her eldest son. Part of her role is to support farming families who have been bereaved by suicide. Following the care offered by the team, in all the years they have worked with farmers, amazingly no farmer has gone on to harm themselves.
