Members of Edgmond Parish Council were welcomed at Harper Adams to discuss future plans and tour the university’s Future Farm.
The visit was part of a series of meetings between the council and the university, which allow both organisations to update the other about future plans, explore any issues and concerns – and plan work together.
Ian said: “As a university rooted in our local community, we’re keen to discuss councillors’ views on a range of matters – from ways in which we can work better together to their thoughts on our new developments. “We then toured the farm – with Richard explaining how we combine teaching and research with a fully-functioning farm and where the food we produce on the farm goes – whether that’s the supermarket shelf or the Harper Adams canteen!”
