    The Importance of organic Food Production StArt reAding here this information board gives an overview of the importance of organic food production. We hope you'll find it interesting and informative. in addition five information boards detailing local organic producers are also available. What is organic Food Production? Organic farming is friendlier to the environment, better for the land, healthier for humans, and kinder to animals. Chemicals such as pesticides, genetically modified plants, animal cloning, growth hormone drugs or antibiotics are never used. Instead time is taken to work with nature building good soil and encouraging a natural environment that will yield healthy nutritious food. tel: 01584 872665 www.myriad-organics.co.uk Our planet is a large and complex eco-system that relies on co-operation.

  • Cluns Peak at £1200 at Annual Sale
    CLUNS PEAK AT £1200 AT ANNUAL SALE It was with great anticipation that Clun Forest Sheep Breeders from all over the UK travelled to the Annual Show and sale at McCartneys Ludlow Market this week. It was the first time that the Ewe and ram sale had been combined to cater for all members and allow just one trip to Shropshire in order to buy new breeding stock. They were not to be disappointed with the best sale in years that included the first thousand pound ram for 25 years and a 95% clearance of all stock entered. There was an excellent standard on show and that was reflected in the prices with the top price of the day peaking at £1200 for a shearling ram from L.E.Lloyd, Sarnesfield Flock, Herefordshire, who was second in his class and winner of the Novice class. The ram, Sarnesfield 1058, had great size and shape and was purchased by a new breeder Kathleen Davies from Hungerford, Berkshire for her Foxglove Flock. The rams were judged by Mr. Mike Eckley from the Court-Llacca Flock, Talgarth who gave the Overall Championship to a Shearling ram, Pen-Y-Wern 02169 from Roger Williams, Newcastle-on-Clun. Mr Eckley stated that, ‘the champion had an exceptional back end a was a great advert for the breed’. This ram reached the second highest price of the day £777 and was sold to L.E.Lloyd, Sarnesfield. Other notable prices were for the 1st Prize aged ram and Reserve Champion from Clive Meredith, Hoarwithy, Herefordshie which sold to Del Knowles from Wrotham, Essex for £672.

The Golden Arrow © Gordon Dickens 1 Introduction Shropshire possesses one of the richest and most varied landscapes of any of the English counties. It offers a diverse range of scenery: from the lakes and rolling pasturelands around Ellesmere in the north, to the gaunt moorlands of the Clee Hills, with their stark industrial ruins, in the south; the densely wooded scarps of Wenlock Edge; or the straight, sandy lanes of the north-eastern heathlands, with their large arable fields and ‘big skys’.

Clun and North West Herefordshire Hills Area profile: Supporting documents Introduction National Character Areas map As part of Natural England’s responsibilities as set out in the Natural Environment White Paper,1 Biodiversity 20202 and the European Landscape Convention,3 we are revising profiles for England’s 159 National Character Areas North (NCAs). These are areas that share similar landscape characteristics, and which East follow natural lines in the landscape rather than administrative boundaries, making them a good decision-making framework for the natural environment. Yorkshire & The North Humber NCA profiles are guidance documents which can help communities to inform West their decision-making about the places that they live in and care for. The information they contain will support the planning of conservation initiatives at a East landscape scale, inform the delivery of Nature Improvement Areas and encourage Midlands broader partnership working through Local Nature Partnerships. The profiles will West also help to inform choices about how land is managed and can change. Midlands East of Each profile includes a description of the natural and cultural features England that shape our landscapes, how the landscape has changed over time, the current key drivers for ongoing change, and a broad analysis of each London area’s characteristics and ecosystem services. Statements of Environmental South East Opportunity (SEOs) are suggested, which draw on this integrated information. South West The SEOs offer guidance on the critical issues, which could help to achieve sustainable growth and a more secure environmental future.
