Gin Farrow-Jones grew up on the edge of nearby Dartmoor. She moved to Plymouth in her late teens and after 5 years living in Brittany she returned to North Stonehouse to enjoy family life with her French partner and young son and to continue her work as an Arts Therapist in Education. Gin is the founder of the Seeds n’ Feeds community garden, a response to the social isolation, eroded community cohesion and disconnection from nature and food that she noticed in our society.  Growing food, eating together and working together to create a more sustainable future connected to nature is one of Gin’s compelling reasons for joining forces with Cliik.
