The Countryside Regeneration Trust (CRT) protects, promotes, and regenerates our land and all life on it.

Our countryside is in state of crisis - farmland wildlife species are declining, smaller farms are struggling to compete, people have grown out of touch with the landscape, and future generations will not know where their food originates. 

At the CRT we take a holistic approach to tackle the biodiversity crisis. Through our ownership of 19 properties across England, we work with tenant farmers, wildlife monitors and volunteers to develop and implement sustainable farming methods and vital conservation practices.

Our properties are part of the local community, inviting everyone to share in the wonder of the countryside and instil a desire to protect it:

• We have converted disused farm buildings into hubs of creativity, allowing local independent businesses to flourish.
• In 2021 we launched an engaging and exciting education programme bringing nature and farming to children.
• In Cambridge we have developed a community orchard, bringing people of all ages and walks of life together to cultivate something beautiful.

Our vision is a living, working countryside.
