Woodlands

Managing the woodlands of the 500-acre Bore Place estate in a way that encourages wildlife is key to our mission and our commitment to improving biodiversity here.

AMBITION

Decarbonisation

We have been making efforts to decarbonise for over 15 years and are committed to ensuring the farm and the wider estate are carbon neutral by 2030 with a wider ambition of becoming carbon negative.

Regenerative Farming

Our Soils

Healthy soil is critical to regenerative farming. We aim to farm in a way that regenerates soil health. Restoring soil reduces atmospheric CO2 and dramatically improves water retention which is increasingly important with climate change and drier summers. It also helps with grass growth. Ensuring adequate grass growth to feed the herd is vital to a dairy farm.
