Regions & Nations

 

UK Grain Lab acts as a hub for a number of regional networks with similar values and works closely with networks in the devolved nations and Ireland. In place of rigid corporate rules, UKGL relies on a shared commitment to increasing diversity, fostering democracy and working toward decentralisation in the grain economy. There is an ambition for decisions by consent to prioritise collective well-being and the restoration of a "human-scale" economy that valorises relationships over profit.
