Help make your countryside
Organic Countryside

• ORGANIC COUNTRYSIDE Community Interest Company [CIC] lets anyone buy a share in the Essex countryside: to be farmed organically for the benefit of the environment and the local community. What's a CIC - find out more about us

• You become can part-owner of Noakes Grove community organic farm near Saffron Walden in Essex. Land you can visit, help farm if you want and enjoy a share of the produce. Take an online tour of Noakes Grove Organic Countryside Farm

• Do you own your share of the countryside? If you live in England, your share of the farmed countryside is 1832 sq metres. Only 59 sq metres of it is farmed organically. We want to give everyone the chance to buy their share of the countryside and have it converted to organic farming: you can start for as little as £100. How can I buy my share of the countryside?

• We have until May 2010 to buy an extra 25 acres. Noakes Grove already safeguards almost 9 acreas of beautiful Essex countryside including an important Local Wildlife Site. We now have just a few months to raise the money to purchase an additional 25 acres to make a fully viable community farm.
