The Three Counties Agricultural Society asked if I wanted any of the amazing vegetables that they had on display at their autumn show last weekend. I've said "Yes please" and a massive pumpkin, two enormous courgettes, a colossal cabbage and enormous celery are now in Worcester Cathedral as an advertising display for this Sunday evening's Harvest Festival. Even in an imposing building like the cathedral, they still look spectacular.
I'm the Agricultural & Rural Chaplain for the diocese of Worcester, and this blog is a little about the work that I do. I am essentially a "free range vicar" who ranges over Worcestershire & Dudley, tying to help churches understand what is going on in agricultural & rural life and working with agricultural & rural organisations (folk like the National Farmers Union, Country Land and Business Association...) so they know the church is involved and interested in rural life .
I "roost" in the Martley area and if I'm not ranging elsewhere then I'm available to the local churches.
I hope this blog will help folk to be in touch with what I'm doing. I'm open to suggestions.
