We source our chicken from one farm in Leicestershire. The farm is Pasture for Life certified and rears truly free range, outdoor birds.
The Regenetarians
We're proud of our #regenuary advocates and their ongoing support. They are a fascinating collective of people all sharing the same passion - to think and act as sustainably as possible in all aspects of their lives.

"The Groundswell event provides a forum for farmers and anyone interested in food production or the environment to learn about the theory and practical applications of Conservation Agriculture or regenerative systems, including no-till, cover crops and re-introducing livestock into the arable rotation, with a view to improving soil health."

"Regenuary makes sense to me. Whatever you eat, plants or animals, be a Regeneratarian and focus on how your food is farmed or grown. Support local, progressive producers and the independent retailers who champion them. We need to move beyond the tired plants versus animals debate and recognise that all food can be produced responsibly."

"Regenerative agriculture needs to become a mindful model of continuous improvement, rather than a reductionist box ticking approach. If you’re not improving your weak spots, then you’re not regenerative anymore."

"Regenerating soil carbon stocks by removing carbon from the atmosphere where it is warming the planet will change the direction the world is currently heading, but most importantly by providing natural healthy food that nurtures both people and the planet will result in healthier people and greater biodiversity and bio-abundance something that we all desire."

"I don't eat a lot of meat, but when I do I want to know that it's come from farms that treat both their animals and the planet with respect. That's why the #regenuary movement is important to me. As a treat I will sometimes buy a whole chicken and make numerous meals from it, right down to making stock from the bones so that nothing goes to waste."

"Regenerative agriculture simply means, recovering and tending to the needs of the land that our livestock and poultry need to grow and survive. As a chef, it is paramount that I know where and how my food is produced. It is very simple, the quality of the ingredients you use, impact the quality and flavour of the dish or meal you produce and the nutrients that it provides."

"Regenerative agriculture to me means the best of all worlds. Agriculture that mimics and works in harmony with natural to give us the most nutrient dense food on the planet. Whatever your chosen diet, it should be local, seasonal and regenerative to the best of your abilities. Only then can we heal the people, the animals and our bountiful, beautiful planet that we are all so lucky to share. Regenerative agriculture is quite literally our only path forward and we need all hands on deck at this crucial time in history."

"Regenerative farming avoids chemicals and excess fertiliser, keeping soils healthy and ecosystems resilient for future generations. It should also be local. Through chemical-free growing, community food projects, and clear storytelling, we show why buying from high-welfare, small-scale farms matters - helping farmers survive without becoming vast, cruel, unsustainable factory systems."

"Silo is a restaurant conceived from a desire to innovate the food industry whilst demonstrating respect: respect for the environment, respect for the way our food is generated and respect for the nourishment given to our bodies. This means we create everything from its whole form, cutting out food miles and over-processing, whilst preserving nutrients and the integrity of the ingredients in the process."

"We have gone past the time to be sustainable and now have to be regenerative. To me it’s a holistic system of nature working together to give us the best possible outcomes. Therefore with the integration of livestock to help nourish our soils and maintain living root systems all year round we are creating rich healthy soils which seal in carbon from the atmosphere, and help us work towards a better future for our children and children’s children."

"As human-made solutions disrupt the planet’s natural balance, we ask what nature can offer instead. On Jane’s farm, animals and ecosystems work in harmony to produce nutrient-dense food. It’s a slow process where patience matters - and why regenerative farming, and Regenuary, matter to me."

"Regenerative agriculture requires us have a careful, attentive approach to improve the health of our soils, vines and the wider biodiversity in and around the vineyard. It means the reduction or elimination of chemical inputs replaced by a more biological approach. It's tremendously exciting as, if we can get it right, we will produce better wines with a lower impact on the planet. A win win!"

"Managing livestock holistically is the number one way to restore soil and sequester carbon on 1/3rd of the landed surface of the planet that is naturally a perennial grassland or savanna ecosystem."

Ultimately reversing the damage done by industrial farming. It’s a journey towards farming in harmony with nature and actively healing the land under our stewardship."

"For Oscar, Max and I, regenerative means leaving the land in an incrementally less shit (rubbish) state than we found it. Practicing farming techniques that can help us to work that bit more with nature, and making products that empower that and are good for people. Heritage grains grow taller, shade out weeds and require no chemicals. The rapeseed has been working on harmony with our grazing sheep to drastically reduce inputs. It's a journey and we are getting there."

"Regenerative agriculture is a win-win. Soil is made more sustainable, carbon is recycled, farms become more profitable, the food often tastes better, and the consumer is more satisfied. It’s not easy, but it’s a virtuous circle that has to be the way forward. At Courteenhall, our focus is leaving a legacy to be proud of. That’s why we have invested in regenerative farming and why we back Regenuary."

"We can all make a difference to the World everyday with the food choices we make. Regenerative Farming to me, means working in partnership with nature, having respect for our environment and understanding the delicate balance we have to try to work towards. Our Lincoln Red cattle spend all year outside, grazing nothing but grass and hay that has had no fertilisers or sprays, just sunlight, rain and great soil. And of course the poo and wee."

I love connecting with our farmers and producers and working together toward a sustainable future. Regenerative farming allows us to restore the soil, enrich our ecosystems, and bring food to the table that’s as good for the planet as it is for our soul."

January invites healthier intentions, but it’s also a time of bold claims and greenwashing. Regenuary matters because it asks us to choose what’s genuinely healthy for people and planet. Regenerative agriculture, informed choice, and chemical-free food quite literally restored my health - and showed me how deeply food, soil, and life are connected.

"It’s not the cow, it’s the how. That principle applies to plants as much as animals. Regenuary complements veganism by reminding us that regenerative methods matter everywhere. Building a sustainable food system means backing farmers who move away from chemicals and monocultures toward organic agroforestry."

Sustainable Wine Solutions
"Sustainable Wine Solutions is proud to be on the frontline of innovation in wine distribution and packaging. We were one of the first to promote quality wines from independent winemakers in alternative formats and to champion wine on tap. Since those days in the early 2000s we have consistently looked for ways to reduce our carbon footprint and to change the behaviour of our customers to a reuse circular economy model. Our roots in retail proved extremely useful as we made our transition into wholesale, providing sustainable solutions to on and off trade venues around the country. As a wine merchant in the 21st century, we aim to pave the way for a new more sustainable and efficient supply chain.-None of us can make the necessary changes alone; together, working collaboratively, we can make a big impact. We have to do what we can and we have to do it now."
