Why Regenerative Farming Matters: Lessons from Orchard Farm

Regenerative farming is more than just a buzzword—it is a powerful approach to agriculture that aims to heal the land, enhance biodiversity, and produce food in a way that benefits both people and the planet. At Orchard Farm, regenerative farming is not just a practice; it is a way of life.

What is Regenerative Farming?

Regenerative farming is about working with nature rather than against it. It means enhancing soil health, increasing biodiversity, and promoting ecosystem services like water purification and carbon capture. Orchard Farm embodies this approach through its diverse habitats—wildflower meadows, wetlands, orchards, and herbal pasture leys.

The Benefits: From Healthier Soil to Happier Wildlife

By practicing rotational grazing and maintaining wildflower meadows, Orchard Farm ensures that its soil remains healthy and full of life. Diverse plant species not only feed the sheep but also provide habitats for pollinators, birds, and other wildlife. The farm’s wetlands help to manage water naturally, reducing flood risks and creating habitats for species like frogs and dragonflies.
