Our Environmental Plans
In 1984 Tony and Tricia Rawlingson Plant bought Trendle Farm which had been a golf course and having been sprayed constantly with various chemicals, a 'Green Desert'. So they banned spraying the land, started a tree planting plan, and created an environment which enriched animals, plants, and of course people.
