2. Compost bins are used by all at the farm.
3. We use recycled paper and products wherever possible.
4. Energy saving light bulbs (lamps) are being used as replacements when an old lamp burns through.
5. The use of environmentally friendly cleaning products.
6. We have insulation in both loft spaces and cavity walls, and double glazing throughout to increase energy efficiency.
7 We support local produce wherever possible, e.g. fruit, veg, and locally produced meat - all of which can be purchased from "Simpsons" the butcher in the village.
8. Maps of the walks around the farm area and beyond are provided.
9. We have water butts for the collection of rainwater for the garden.
