Are you looking for a lucky break into farming?

The article discusses the Farm Step start-up scheme of the Earth Trust charity of Oxfordshire, England. The initiative aims to help newcomers who are facing difficulties including the lack of capital and shortages in rural housing. The addition of North Farm in 2010 has doubled the size of the Earth Trust estate. Among the small green businesses under the Farm Step are a sheep flock, a salad company and a market garden.
