Patrick Holden, CBE

Patrick’s extensive advocacy work centers on the importance of transforming our food and farming systems to address climate change, reverse biodiversity loss, and improve public health. This work includes regular broadcasts and talks at public events. After studying biodynamic agriculture at Emerson College, Patrick established a mixed-community farm in Wales in 1973. His farm is now the longest-established mixed organic dairy holding in Wales, producing an-award winning raw milk cheddar-style cheese, Hafod, from the milk of 90 Ayrshire dairy cows.
