From mid-April to early July 2025, Veronica cycled over 2000 kilometres across England, from Cornwall to Cumbria. Along the way, she stopped to interview women involved in farming and food production to explore their visions for the future.

Growing up in the Netherlands, cycling was an everyday part of Veronica’s life. After moving to England for university, however, it took many years before she felt confident enough to leave the protected cycle lanes and venture onto the steep hills and narrow country lanes of Devon. Since discovering the National Cycle Network, Veronica has enjoyed exploring the beautiful countryside of the South West of England, including on a four-day ride from Exeter to Falmouth for her master’s graduation.
