Swallowtail Hill

A farm in the High Weald run for bio-diversity; a fabulous eco glamping venue; a forest school and a centre for conservation education.

Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) is now live. 🏡

We worked with @DefraGovUK to advise on policy and helped design a tool that enables developers to calculate their requirements.

It certainly is! 😊

When you open Saturday’s The Times and a few of the Wild(ish) places to stay that are featured are made by Plankbridge, including @ElmleyNNR and @Swallowtailhill It’s very pleasing.

@edfenergy Thankyou. I’ve dm’d details and await a response.

[Swallowtail Hill @Swallowtailhill]

@edfenergy My biz due switch to you 8.10. Hasn’t happened. Why? No contact from you! Existing supplier says I’m now on out of contract rates. I’ve been on hold to @edfenergy for 92 minutes now! livechat failed to help and whatapp chat useless. This needs sorting TODAY. Shambolic.

Wish us luck as we head to Downing Street tomorrow! 🤞 Current targets in the Environment Act would mean less nature in England in 20 years' time - over 60,000 of you have given your support as we call on the Government to guarantee a better future for wildlife. Thank you 💚

It all feels like catastrophic climate change is right around the corner. And you’d be right – the question is what do we do about it? Read our blog post in full here over on our website: https://t.co/BHhU8KeGpw

We've two weekend breaks still left for Woodcutter's and Wood Cabin in May. Availability is from 6th-8th May with the option to extend a few days on either side. Spring is a beautiful month here, but don't take our word for it - come and see for yourself! https://t.co/xjvf5PABki

Today is International Earth Day. This year's theme is #InvestInOurPlanet. Our suppliers have to meet our sustainability and ethical standards – from the washing powder we use, to the chocolate we sell in the shop. The food we sell is locally sourced and organically grown too.

[Swallowtail Hill @Swallowtailhill]

@helentrevorrow Any other night I would def have come but next Thurs is my 50th bday 😳 so I’m already booked. Sorry! Are you doing any others?? 😘

The winter work on the farm right now is coppicing. During this year’s cut, we're embarking on the restoration of a truly ancient hornbeam and oak wood boundary bank. Restoring these truly ancient trees is a bit heart-in-mouth, but if it results in new growth it's a huge win!
