Energy
Energy is a very important issue to Sheepdrove, as an ethical food producer. The whole business runs on Ecotricity to save over 210 tonnes of CO2 annually. Renewable energy is something we are developing at a micro scale, with an energy-saving ethos across the board. Even the chicken houses have solar PV panels!
