Welcome to the Ground to Garment podcast – a platform to share conversations that reconnect fashion and farming, exploring a healthy, regenerative model for textiles from the soil up.
Katy from Warriner Leather is a talented leather maker, who has spent the last nine years persuing the ultimate dream - working with leather that can be traced back to a specific cow. This episode is a deep delve into the journey of what truly sustainable leather could look like.
Episode 2 out now … Leather is controversial in sustainable fashion conversations. The cattle industry gets labelled as one of the big emitters of methane & leather manufacturing uses toxic chemicals that pollute the environment - but this isn’t the only way to produce leather.
Andy Rummings from Waterhay Farm is a Pasture for Life certified beef farmer based in Wiltshire and is incredibly passionate about his cows and supporting the wildlife on his farm.

Thank you so much for your patience - I got there in the end and am so excited to share more lovely stories with you. Please feel free to give feedback. This is my first attempt at a podcast and I have a lot to learn! BIG thank you to the team at the mill & my editor Ben Malley.
The episode touches on British wool, the spinning process, the importance of local textiles and the skills needed to support this industry, as well as the mill's drive for net zero and championing textile manufacturing in the South West of England.
