About Us

Masuyo Newman

Mas has been a volunteer at The Farm since 2016. She joined the board in 2017. She has a keen interest in both Japanese and British food and cooking, and the melding of these two cultures. She is keen to help The Farm develop and is introducing us to a range of pickling and fermentation approaches that help minimise food waste. Mas blogs about cookery and food, does catering and runs Japanese cookery and culture workshops. Born in Kyusho, Japan, she moved to Luxembourg with her husband (originally from the Chew Valley). While living there she ran a Japanese food shop. Mas is trained as a therapist and works from her home, in Pensford.

We also have a team of fantastic regular volunteers who help us on the field, in the warehouse and for specific projects. Too numerous to mention here, and ever-changing, their support, commitment and enthusiasm is much appreciated by all of us at The Farm.
