Notice Title

Eryri Regenerative Farming Consultancy / Ymgynghoriaeth Ffermio Adfywiol Eryri

Notice Description

Ffermio Adfywiol Tirweddau Eryri is an ambitious collaborative project looking to work with 20 farmers in two primary geographical areas to implement regenerative principles on farms across Eryri (Snowdonia). The project is funded by Welsh Government through the Integrated Natural Resource Scheme (INRS) and delivered by Eryri National Park Authority (ENPA). ENPA wish to appoint an individual or company to deliver the consultancy element of this project. The work will involve leading a training programme for farmers - teaching them the principles of Regenerative Farming, co-designing farm management plans and mentor the farmers throughout the project with expert input and guidance with regular drop ins and the establishment of a peer-to-peer learning programme. Project Overview This farmer-led initiative operates at a landscape scale in Eryri National Park. Its aim is to foster the development of resilient, regenerative farming enterprises that can drive positive changes in ecosystem services while producing high-quality food. Regenerative agriculture adopts a principles-based approach, applying regenerative practices tailored to each farm's distinct social, environmental, and economic context. This customised strategy informs the creation of unique grazing and management plans. The project recognises that successfully transitioning a farm to a regenerative system extends beyond merely instructing farmers on new practices. A comprehensive, "whole system" approach, adapted to the area's specific cultural and environmental conditions is essential for creating truly resilient farms. These farms will not only embrace the unique sense of place inherent to each locality but will also honour the strong cultural heritage of Eryri farming and integrate important habitat and species-focused objectives alongside agroecological production goals. This initiative is structured around an integral approach to driving change. It encompasses teaching the technical aspects of regenerative farming and facilitating their application through a series of practical workshops, a guided design process, and peer-to-peer coaching. This multifaceted support aims to cultivate a sense of ongoing confidence and foster a supportive regenerative community. A primary objective and expected outcome of regenerative farming is to enhance ecosystem processes, which include soil health, landscape-level hydrological functions, improved biodiversity in grassland swards and overall habitats, and increased primary production. Each farm will develop its own bespoke regenerative plans after participating in a range of training sessions--comprising site-based group training, workshops, online self-directed learning, online group coaching sessions, and peer-to-peer coaching. This project is funded by Welsh Governments Integrated Natural Resource Scheme. The funding was approved in February 2026. This project is set to begin in April 2026 with a recruitment process on-going to employ a Project Officer. To date, the project completion date is September 2028, however, efforts are on-going to move the completion date to March 2029. The Project Officer will be responsible for managing the day to day delivery of the project. They will work closely with the appointed consultant to coordinate the training programme and support the development of farm management plans. In addition, the Project Officer will oversee the contract management of all capital works. The project also intends to collaborate with an external company to provide access to an online app to support participating farmers. This platform will act as a central hub for baseline surveys, soil health monitoring and future rotational grazing planning.
