I know, I know, not really a thing to brag about but look at this, doesn’t this sound great. The water we now use is organic and locally sourced so to speak. And this is a sample of their bumph which I really like:
“Glastonbury Spring Water appreciates the need in reducing / off setting our carbon footprint where at all possible. When taking on our new build at Park Corner Farm, Glastonbury, the environment & climate change heavily influenced the way we carried out the design.
We developed a run down council farm into a state of the art production facility with every aspect of the design encompassing recyclable or renewable materials wherever possible. All bricks in the build were reclaimed from the previous farm buildings. Sheep’s wool was used as insulation for the roof. Under floor heating installed with a ground source heat pump to warm the offices & production areas & solar panels introduced to provide hot water for our bottling plant.
A reed bed sewerage waste system completed the installation. Now the plant is fully operational all plastics, bottles & wrapping are recycled locally as well as cardboard.
Our water is bottled at source onsite from our own borehole, no tankering is involved at any stage
“Other Recycling Initiatives”
As from December 07 all our drivers will carry PDA’s to eliminate the use of paper.
We are continually tree planting to expand our orchards at Park Corner.
If you are interested in our build or any of the schemes running at Park Corner including our higher level stewardship we would be more than happy for you to pay us a visit.”
Cool, eh? I might set up a visit.
I utterly liked reading about New water at the clinic: or how green we are getting! C1 Blog and think it was well worth the read. The only other site I found on Bing wasnt as good as this one, thanks.
