Farming in Protected Landscapes: ideas for your farm

Posted by: , Posted on: - Categories: Payments to support parks, National Landscapes and the Broads, Ways to get involved

Are you a farmer with land in or near a National Park or Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in England?

The new Farming in Protected Landscapes programme will fund projects that support nature recovery, tackle climate change, provide opportunities for people to discover nature or support sustainable farm businesses.

In this video, Suzanne Fletcher from the Peak District National Park and Tom Munro from the Dorset Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty explain the application process and give you some ideas of what projects you could do on your farm.
