The project will incorporate agroforestry, and forest garden design methods, and will be focused on accelerating the adoption of regenerative agriculture for upland Yorkshire and beyond, through knowledge sharing between diverse stakeholders.

Over time, we will create a continuous productive landscape to capture carbon, increase biodiversity, and produce food crops that are appropriate in our climate and environment. We plan to incorporate mixed and diverse design patterns across the site, integrating different farming systems, creating a holistic and eclectic approach, which could then be applied to other larger schemes across Yorkshire and the UK.

This novel approach to upland farming for sustainable, resilient food production could provide some of Britain's challenged farmers with a path to profitable living whilst helping fight climate change. With its commercial procurement and foodservice partners, BioHub has access to chefs and sales directors, testing its feasibility and measuring viability.
