How Biofarm works

Every biodiversity unit starts with a real place. Every project begins with a partnership.

  • Biofarm BNG Sleight Farm Field

    We find the land

    Working alongside landowners, we identify places with the potential to become something more.

  • Biofarm BNG Sleight Farm Forest

    We create habitats

    Our ecologists restore wetlands, woodlands, species rich grasslands and priority habitats that generate measurable biodiversity gains.

  • Biofarm BNG Construction Hat

    We support development

    Our habitats generate biodiversity units that help developers deliver BNG while creating lasting benefits for nature.

  • Biofarm BNG Sleight Farm Butterfly

    We look after what we create

    Every Biofarm habitat is managed, monitored and reported on for at least 30 years because lasting biodiversity depends on lasting stewardship.

No wild claims. Just wilder places.

    Charlie Simpon, Managing Director, Westbourne Homes

  • “We were impressed with their knowledge of the BNG sector. Right from the start, Biofarm was enthusiastic about our site and the possibilities offered, and are now in the process of creating habitat banks. We look forward to an exciting future with Biofarm supplying top quality off-site units as the BNG market continues to grow.”

    Richard, Landowner, North Yorkshire

  • 'Biofarm took a complex biodiversity net gain requirement and made it simple. Rather than engaging multiple providers, they developed a more efficient, joined-up habitat strategy and sourced additional units through their network - all under one agreement.'

    Robin Means, Director, Wrenbridge

  • “Padel is a sociable sport, and we’re excited to give more people the chance to get involved. We needed to understand how BNG would fit into our plans. Biofarm helped us work through the requirements and find a practical way forward, so we could focus on bringing the project to life. We’re proud that something designed to bring people together can also support lasting gains for nature.”

    Toby Phipps, Director, Padel MK

  • "The off-site solution was simple, effective and gave us complete confidence that our obligations were being met. It allowed us to stay focused on redeveloping the station and serving our communities, while ensuring biodiversity outcomes were delivered and managed for the long term."

  • “We purchased habitat units from Biofarm and appreciated how they worked with us to shape a solution that fit our specific project. Their team joined calls with our planners and the local council, helping to build understanding and confidence around BNG delivery. It made the process feel more collaborative and easier to navigate.”

    Ben, Technical Director, Wavensmere Homes

  • “Biofarm took a pragmatic and proactive approach to agreeing the Biodiversity Unit Purchase Agreement. Regular progress updates were provided on the BNG delivery site, facilitating transparency at every stage of the process. They were approachable and effective in providing clear and practical advice around BNG units.”

    Katie, Senior Planning Manager, Hayfield Homes

  • “Biofarm has been very knowledgeable and helpful from day one. They came and visited my site, gave me a detailed proposal and helped me manage the necessary contractual stages. Working with Biofarm has been very easy.”

    Justin, Landowner, Elmbridge

  • "Biofarm brings together practical understanding of land and property with the ecological expertise to guide its restoration. They’ve made a complex process feel straightforward and given me confidence in what we can achieve together for the land and local wildlife."

    Simon, Landowner, North Cornwall

  • "We have found the collaboration with Biofarm to be productive, pragmatic and equitable. While we are still at the beginning of the journey it was satisfying to see the first sale go through last month. We look forward to our ongoing work together in creating more natural and economic value."

    Alain, Landowner, Oxfordshire

  • “Biofarm took a complex biodiversity challenge and turned it into a practical, commercially workable solution. They took the time to understand the wider operational and commercial priorities, worked collaboratively with our team and gave us confidence that the BNG requirements would be met and the project could keep moving.”
