Soil is the foundation of life. Yesterday was World Soil Day, so we reflect on the importance of protecting and restoring our planet’s soils—particularly peat bogs, one of Earth’s most vital ecosystems. We are so proud of our work to restore these magical places 💚

Tomorrow is World Soil Day! Soil is an incredibly important resource that is still hugely undervalued. Our composts and mulches help you create healthy soil with no need to feed. Now is a great time to mulch, so give your soils what they deserve this World Soil Day.#worldsoilday

You're not seeing double, these are our Tups and they are excited to get their annual meeting with the ewes. We call this “tupping”. The harsh weather on the fells in early spring is not ideal for lambs, so we time it so that they come a little later here! #tups #tupping
