The Trust has a major conservation programme and the 89-acre
Farm is currently managed under the Countryside Stewardship
Scheme which includes hedge-laying, planting, hay meadow
management and watercourse restoration. The Farm endeavours
to generate funds for the Trust through traditional farming
practices and provision of educational activities.
The Trust
creates opportunities to involve local community groups,
schools, volunteers and businesses in farming and
environmental activities, thus helping to bridge the current
divide between country and urban living.
