Company
Ecological Land Cooperative Limited
United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Irela
The Ecological Land Cooperative was set up to address the lack of affordable sites for ecological land based livelihoods in England and Wales. There is an enormous disconnect between the combined cost of land and rural housing and the income that is usually derived from sustainable rural livelihoods such as small scale ecological food production which protect the environment and reduce greenhouse gas emissions by reducing fossil fuel use. Such businesses help build a vibrant living countryside in which people flourish alongside our cherished landscapes and natural biodiversity and have a important role to play in ensuring food and energy security. They also provide employment access to local food and crafts and educational opportunities for urban visitors helping to maintain rural skills and to improve ecological literacy.
