An astonishing true story of a brother and sister faced with eviction from their family farm following the death of their father.
Ben and Charlotte Hollins needed to raise £800,000 to buy the farm outright from the landlord who had decided to sell.

More than 8,000 people are now stakeholders including Prince Charles. This is their story.
