Halnaker Hill Farm, managed commercially by Kingsbridge, is embarking on an ambitious project to restore over 300 acres of historic farmland within the South Downs National Park. Originating as a mixed farm before transitioning to intensive wheat farming, the land is now undergoing a regenerative transformation focused on revitalizing soil health and fostering nature conservation. This shift includes extensive planting initiatives, with 6km of native hedgerows and 17 acres hectares of native woodlands already planted since acquisition in September 2024 established to connect ancient woodlands and create crucial wildlife habitats.

The regenerative vision of Halnaker Hill Farm has culminated in one of the UK's largest Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) projects,generating 856 BNG Units designed to offset carbon emissions and address biodiversity loss. Registered with Natural England, Halnaker Hill Farm is setting a new standard for sustainable, regenerative farming.

The scheme has been secured under a legal s106 agreement which commits to the management of the farm over 30 years to enhance biodiversity.  The farm is monitored by the South Downs National Park Authority.

The BNG Units are available for purchase by residential, commercial, and infrastructure developers seeking to meet the government's mandatory 10% BNG requirement for new developments, as well as corporates aiming to achieve their ESG targets through nature recovery initiatives. Individuals can also invest in enhancing the natural environment by purchasing the units. Halnaker Hill Farm was acquired by Halnaker Hill Natural Capital (HHNC) in 2024, with Kingsbridge managing the commercial aspects of the project.

Halnaker Hill Farm offers a unique opportunity to invest in a sustainable future, supporting a project that not only restores valuable farmland but also actively combats climate change and biodiversity loss.

By providing a significant supply of BNG units, Halnaker Hill Farm is enabling developers, businesses, and individuals to contribute to a healthier planet while meeting their environmental obligations and corporate social responsibility goals.
