Second chance salad. The Severn Project started 5 years ago as a social enterprise to try and reclaim unused land in the middle of Bristol and convert it to farming endeavours. Moreover it was intended as a first step in to employment for recovering drug and substance abusers. Its founder Steve Glover tells Ruth Sanderson why its so important that sustainable food just a trend, but rather a long term solution - and how a strong business model is the only way for locally produced food to last. Ruth meets some volunteers with the project, who say that whilst the work is hard, its an important routine which is key to stay on the road to recovery. Produced and presented in Bristol by Ruth Sanderson.
