Chair of farmers' market says loss of food production skills is a worry
The declining amount of food production on the Island over the last two decades has been 'quite frightening'.
That's the assessment of the chair of the Isle of Man Farmers' Market, which celebrates its 20th year next year.
Sheila Gawne says advances in technology, changing diets and the weather have all contributed.
