As part of
our commitment to farming in harmony with the environment, we signed up
to the All-Wales agri-environmental scheme, known as Tir Gofal
(meaning "care of the countryside"). Under this scheme we
have committed ourselves to reinstaten almost 3 kilometre of hedgerows, dig 2 new ponds,
plant stubble turnips each year to give a food source to overwintering birds,
and to reverted several hectares of improved grassland to a more
semi-improved or unimproved state. |

In addition a network of several kilometres of permissive access paths linking to public footpaths mean that the public are welcome to come and visit the farm and see for themselves how farming and caring for the environment can go hand in hand.
