Farming in Protected Landscapes
The Farming in Protected Landscapes Programme is a 5 year programme running until March 2026, providing grant-funding for Farmers and Landowners. The programme focuses on key challenges facing Protected Landscapes and those who live and work in them; supporting work towards addressing the climate and biodiversity crisis.
The aims of the programme fit into four aims: Climate, Nature, People and Place – to address and prepare for current and future climate issues, enrich existing habitats and biodiversity, create opportunities for more people to engage with the landscape, and reinforce and protect the special features and structures within the landscape.
