So, what is Regenerative Agriculture?

Regenerative Agriculture improves the environment by increasing biodiversity, nurturing soil health and creating more complex ecosystems for more nutritionally dense food to thrive in.

What does this look like in action?

Regenerative farming methods allow Ed to remove artificial inputs from his system.

That means no insecticides, herbicides, fungicides are needed. Instead the system is managed naturally.

In Ed’s fields the grass margins are alive with wild carrots, wild geraniums, oxeye daisy’s, viper’s bugloss, inviting the bees, ladybirds and biodiversity to thrive. These beneficial organisms are a form of biological pest control, keeping pests at bay and allowing the crop to flourish.

During the Spring the sheep will graze the fields. This is a natural method of disease control while also positively impacting on the yield.

What does this mean for Northern Pasta?

Well firstly, Ed’s spelt is full of flavour. And we put this down to the natural and regenerative ways in which he farms the crop. Which in turn makes our pasta incredibly delicious.

It also makes our pasta better for you and better for the planet as the ‘cides and artificial inputs that can be so damaging to our health and the environment have been removed.
