Sustainable Farming is a public network for those interested in sustainable farming in the Yorkshire and Humber Region. 

It is managed by Vicky Wren [2], the Farm Resource Efficiency Programme (FREP) Project Manager.

The network includes news, events, forums for discussion and the Farming Futures interactive map to discover case studies, factsheets and events in your region.

FREP is part of the Rural Development Programme for England (RDPE) and provides grants to farmers in the Yorkshire and Humber region to assist with the purchase and installation of capital equipment that generates business and environmental benefits. More information on the programme can be found here [3].
