Mark has lived at Challacombe with his wife Naomi (who grew up there) for the past 30 years, but has only been farming full-time for the past 7. Prior to that he managed the South West Coast Path, whilst until recently Naomi was an ecologist with Natural England, and their passions for access and wildlife has shaped how they care for the farm. Alongside farming, Mark is a Secretary of State appointee on the board of the Dartmoor National Park Authority, and a founder director of the Central Dartmoor Farm Cluster which is developing England’s largest Landscape Recovery project  - an ambitious and bespoke environmental land management scheme to create an economically and environmentally sustainable Dartmoor   (www.dartmoorfarmcluster.org )
