Our approach
Sustainability
Sustainability, its such a buzz word, but what does it mean. Well for us it means creating a viable (economically sustainable) business from the land, whilst at the same time improving the Environment (environmental sustainability) of the site through organic processes, planting trees, hedges, meadows and a succession of flowering plants which are attractive to insects alongside our nursery.
We make most of our own plants from seed, cutting and division of plants here at the land, planted for that purpose but in a way that allows plant communities to support each other and the nature that we share the land with.
Another important aspect of our approach is we have no plan or desire to ‘upscale’ or produce more each year from the land, instead focusing on a balanced approach so we don’t cause more harm than good at the land. Our motto is Growth for the sake of growth in is the ideology of the cancer cell, and we keep that in mind when making any plans at the land.
