Leave No Trace
Have you heard about the 7 x Principles of ‘Leave No Trace’? Its an easy to understand framework that helps support sustainability and minimises negative impacts for anyone visiting outdoor spaces. It’s something that we follow when we invite Schools to Barleylands. There are 5 of the main 7 that are relevant to Barleylands. Listed below are the Principles we follow so that you can rest easy knowing your School Visit has all the best intentions on the environment around you:
- Plan Ahead and Prepare: prepare for all weathers.
- Dispose of Waste Properly: bins are all around the Farm Park and Kitchen Classrooms ready for you and your Students to dispose of their rubbish, safely.
- Leave What You Find: Leave rocks, plants, and archaeological items as you found them; do not build structures.
- Respect Wildlife: Observe animals from a distance, do not feed them, and store food securely.
- Be Considerate of Others: Respect other visitors, keep noise low, and yield to others on the trail
