Ben's guest today is Tom Davis who once went on the Radio 1 Breakfast Show with Greg James to talk about ducks. Tom is currently Farm Manager at Mud Chute Farm which is in the heart of London on the Isle of Dogs. He’s a trustee of the British Waterfowl Association and the poultry club of Great Britain and a former trustee of the Rare Breeds Survival Trust. And he’s also no stranger to the small screen, having appeared on a number of TV programmes to chat all things farming. 

Born and raised on a council estate in Battersea, he may not come from a traditional farming background, but he’s been determined to follow a career in the sector and has previously managed another city farm and worked as an instructor at a college. Tom also judges sheep, poultry and waterfowl at various agricultural shows.
