Accreditation & Sustainability

At R W Walpole Ltd we aim to operate a sustainable business with a clear environmental vision. We have committed to achieving industry standards in food production, farm management and ethical standards to demonstrate our approach to good management and operating standards and for the benefit of the business, our customers and our employees.

LEAF (Linking Environment and Farming)

Leaf Marque is an environmental assurance system recognising sustainably farmed products. When you see produce and products with the Leaf Marque logo, you can be sure it comes from a farm practising sustainable agriculture that meets the Leaf Marque Standard. All Leaf Marque certified businesses are independently inspected and, to maintain our accreditation, we commit to an annual audit to Leaf's industry leading environmental standards.

RED TRACTOR ASSURANCE (arable and fresh produce standards)

Our arable and fresh food produce is assessed and certified against Red Tractor Standards.

The Red Tractor Standards have been created in consultation with customers, farmer representatives and the wider industry to ensure they are clear and provide meaningful, credible farm assurance for all. This is essential with the increasing demand for traceability in food, growing consumer awareness of farming issues and a need to minimise pesticide residues.
