Environment

We care when growing our crops.

Efficient production of wholesome food can be combined with care of nature. Everything we do on this farm is the result of careful decision making with thought of quality, profitability and the environment.⠀

As well as producing commercial crops on our farm, we have many acres of environmental measures woven into our farming landscape. We have been a LEAF (Linking Environment and Farming) member for a number of years, practising integrated farm management. Efficient production of wholesome food can be combined with care of nature. Everything we do on this farm is a result of careful decision making with thought of quality, profitability and the environment.

On our farm we have planted new hedges, re-generated ponds, sown flower margins around our fields and have planted wild bird covers to feed song birds over the winter. We have different hedge row heights around the farm to benefit wild life, short hedges for Yellow Hammers and tall hedges for Turtle Doves.

Barn Owls

We care for and monitor a small population of barn owls on our farm. Nesting boxes are strategically placed around the farm to encourage the population.

Environmental Audits

Our farm is LEAF Marque accredited by taking an annual audit showing that food has been grown sustainably with care for the environment.
