Climate friendly food
Low carbon food from rich-soil farming
Climate Friendly Food works to encourage farming and growing practices that produce quality food, whilst sequestering carbon in the soil and plants.
We have produced the UK's most comprehensive producers carbon calculator and offer the world's first low-carbon food certification scheme. We also support farmers and growers through a demonstration farm, booklets, courses and a consumer awareness programme.
