The Game & Wildlife Conservation Trust’s Allerton Project.

Allerton Project Farm

The Game & Wildlife Conservation Trust (GWCT) inherited the 800 acre Allerton Project farm in Leicestershire from Lord and Lady Allerton, who having no heirs to inherit the estate, left it to the Trust. This was a fantastic opportunity for the GWCT to demonstrate that is possible to reverse the decline in wildlife while farming commercially and increasing crop yields. In particular, one of the key aspects of this visionary project was to assess how the traditional skills of the gamekeeper could not only produce a stock of wild game, but to find out to what extent other species of farmland wildlife would benefit from this too.

Plant a sparkling wine vineyard here in Britain – Really?!

Vineyards have always been a common part of the countryside for our European neighbours. When a deciding which crop to plant, grape vines are probably fairly high on a landowners list of possibilities. Though reputed to have crossed our shores with the Romans, vineyards have also been a part of the UK’s rural scene, certainly since the Norman Conquest. Now, with English Wine, particularly Sparkling Wine, gaining an enviable reputation and sales worldwide, more vineyards are springing up in the UK’s countryside every year and that’s not confined to the south coast. With economic pressures on other crops, British farmers are increasingly looking at vines as a realistic new source of income.
