We speak to four young people about the challenges of being young in the countryside and what they’re doing to make their – and others’ – lives better.

They are: Megan Rowland, a Scottish gamekeeper; Dusty Zamecnik, a Canadian strawberry farmer and brewer, Lauren Aitchison, a Scottish psychology graduate and rural entrepreneur; Dirk-Jan Kloet, a Dutch agricultural entrepreneur.

This podcast is produced by Jez Fredenburgh for the Rural Youth Project, a movement to spark positive change for and by young people in rural areas. The Rural Youth Project is created and run by Jane Craigie Marketing. www.ruralyouthproject.com
