Our Planet
- Harrop
Fold’s Environmental Policy
We consider ourselves fortunate to live in the beautiful Peak
District National Park. In
order to care for our environment we are following these guidelines we
have outlined for ourselves and would be pleased if our guests would
assist us in our aims
- We
wish to ensure that all either resident, employed or
visiting Harrop Fold are aware of the potential environmental
effects of their activities and the importance of improved
environmental performance. For
those employed environmental training
will be offered.
- We
will communicate this
environmental policy and promote environmental awareness amongst all
at Harrop Fold.
- This
information will be made
available to all interested parties on request.
- This
policy statement will be
displayed in Welcome Browsers
Our Natural Environment
The farm is managed sympathetically in agreement
with the Countryside Stewardship.
Our Commitment to Energy Saving
- Thermostatic
radiator valves on all radiators.
- Conscious of
‘Food Miles’ we support the local economy by produce being
sourced within Peak National Park or within 15 miles
- In addition
the food is generally fresher, traceable and usually uses far less
packaging
- A number of
low energy bulbs have been fitted
- Our own
supply of sustainable wood used on log fires
- Our spring
water is supplied by our own borehole
- This in turn
is fed back to the land via our septic tank forming a full
environmental circle
- Housekeeping policies
will be explained to guests
