Bill Starling

Bill Starling "has been an active member of the Soil Association, serving in many roles both local and national, for long enough to say that he knew our founder, Lady Eve Balfour. He established, and for twelve years ran, the first specialist organic grain trading operation. He also ran a small, part-time, farm which was certified by the Soil Association. He is now a self-employed organic inspector and advisor, which gives him daily contact with both producers and processors of organic food. He has been a member of Council since the merger with British Organic Farmers (BOF), before which he was Chairman of BOF. He also tries to put the Soil Association's point of view through a regular 'Green Column' for the Eastern Daily Press."
