We are pleased to announce that Beech Croft Farm has been awarded a Peak District Environmental Quality Mark.
What is the EQM?
The concept of an Environmental Quality Mark was developed by the Peak District National Park Authority in 2001. The Peak District Environmental Quality Mark (PDEQM) started off as a replicable, place-based environmental quality mark for farms and tourism businesses in the Peak District. In 2011 it was reviewed and renewed and then validated by Visit England. The new scheme can be customised for any destination.
The EQM is a place based environmental quality mark that enables any businesses to demonstrate how they use and enhance the place in a sustainable way, to increase the fulfilment of customers. It is a way that businesses can demonstrate not only how they are running good, sustainable businesses, reducing their negative impact on the environment and supporting their communities but also influencing customers’ behaviour, engagement and knowledge.
The Peak District Environmental Quality Mark (EQM) is an award presented to businesses that:
1) Put pride in the Peak District at the heart of their operations
2) Actively help safeguard and improve the Peak District environment and heritage
3) Safeguard natural resources
4) Promote their values to their customers
5) Add to the wellbeing of their communities
6) Work together with businesses in other sectors, use and promote their produce and services
