Happy Earth Day

🌎 Today we celebrate #EarthDay ~ At Knowsley Hall, we are dedicated to preserving the beauty of our stately home and its surroundings for future generations. 💚 Our commitment to sustainability can be seen through various eco-friendly initiatives across the estate. ✅ We plant over 1,000 trees annually to aid in carbon offsetting. ✅ Our woodland habitat is carefully managed to support native birds and to supply our four biomass boilers, which heat homes across the estate. ✅ We generate energy using a hydro system that harnesses power from naturally flowing water. ✅ We grow most of our herbs on-site. ✅ Our irrigation relies on natural water collection rather than mains water. ✅ Our kitchen uses locally sourced lamb, beef, and game, reducing food miles and ensuring superior quality. Let's work together towards a greener future 💚 #Sustainability #KnowsleyHall 🌳♻️🌿 Capture My Big Day
