The Blue Carbon Farming Company is part of the biosphere of the protected salt marshes at Steart in Somerset. Working with the WWT (Wildfowl & Wetlands Trust), it's the first time in around 40 years that cattle have been grazed on the salt marshes. This helps promote the lifecycle of the wetlands through sustainable farming of the land which in turn increases insect and birdlife and at the same time trapping more carbon in the ground.
We farm traditional breeds such as Aberdeen Angus and Hereford which feed on some of the most diverse pasture, including samphire and sea aster. As a result this means our beef is some of the healthiest and tastiest you'll ever experience.

When our cattle graze the wetlands new grass growth draws carbon into the roots which stay in the soil after the plants die.
All our produce is grown and processed within a 20 square miles area. If that’s not keeping our Carbon Footprint down we don’t know what is.
