A young couple who farm organically near North Tawton have launched a crowdfunding campaign to raise thousands of pounds to help them become ‘greener than the grass’.

Sam and Katie Bullingham of Taw River Dairy are fundraising to swap their diesel powered delivery van for an electric powered one to be charged up using electricity generated on the farm.
