Things We Do -

• We recycle paper, cardboard, bottles and aluminium cans. We compost all our garden refuse and collect leaves for leaf mould.
• We try to avoid the use of chemicals in the gardens
• We have left a substantial area of woodland as a wildlife habitat
• We have installed solar hot water at Well Cottage, and have insulated the cottage to extremely high standards
• We use local suppliers, producers, contractors and craftsmen.
• We sponsor the websites of a number of local charitable and community organisations, including Taste South East Cornwall, the Morval Steam Rally, the St Piran Singers and Herodsfoot-online.
• We support our local community - particularly All Saints Church. Although we are not church members ourselves, All Saints is the centre of our community and provides the only public space for concerts, lectures and other events in the village. You will find a very warm welcome if you attend any of the events in the village.
