Conservation
- Upper Booth is farmed with conservation in mind. The farm is part of the National Trust's High Peak Estate where the aim is to maintain the landscape and its features and encourage wildlife.
- The farm is part of DEFRAs North Peak Environmentally Sensitive Area. Two Sites of Special Scientific Interest are found on the farm.
- In conjunction with DEFRA and the National Trust, a programme of restoring drystone walls is being carried out, and remnant hedges are being replanted. The ditches on an area of pasture have been blocked to re-wet the land in order to encourage wading birds such as snipe, lapwing and curlew.
- The farm is also LEAF's first upland demonstration unit. More details here>>>.
- Upper Booth Farm won the 2003 Derbyshire Farming and Wildlife Advisory Group (FWAG) Fisher German Trophy in recognition of the farms conservation programme.
- In July 2003 Upper Booth's conservation work won recognition at the Inaugural Awards of the David Arnold-Forster Trust. Press Coverage.
