Landshare is calling on companies to pledge to put their unused land to work and become part of 100 Growing Businesses. This list of companies will pave the way in bringing the grow-your-own revolution to the boardroom, and could prove to be major influencers on the future of sustainable food production in the workplace.
Why Landshare
Landshare believes that companies could be sitting on acres of land which could be generating real business results. Companies across the UK have land right on their premises that could help them:
- Deliver on corporate responsibility targets
- Increase the workforce’s health, satisfaction, skills and productivity
- Reduce staff turnaround
- Create healthy food with low cost and zero food miles for your staff canteen
- Engage with the local community
- Promote a positive brand identity
- Lead the way in sustainable business practice
What we want you to do
We invite you to pledge to start growing food within your company within one year. We want 100 companies to commit to making this change, and together act to significantly influence greener business practice.
By registering your pledge you will be well on your way to creating a landshare for your company. You can read our companies case study to find out more about setting up your Landshare project, including advice on how to use the site to engage your local community and find gardening experts for your project. At the end of the one-year period, the most inspiring Landsharing companies will be featured on the Landshare website and promoted widely as leading examples of company Landshare projects.
Companies have a huge amount to gain from Landsharing and we’d like to encourage all companies to make the most of this opportunity. Have a look at the companies case study to find out more about setting up your Landshare project, or get in touch with us if you have any questions.
