Whether you’re rewilding

a square foot,

or a thousand acres,

we’re here to make your impact evergreen

Your grounds, your way!

Each award has its own scoring system that is adjusted to suit the area you have available for nature assessment. For example an area of 2 acres is not scored the same way as a large estate with 30 acres available for assessment. Both the 2 acre site and the 30 acre site can score high enough to achieve a gold medal award as they will be assessed within their own category - See below for each of our assessment groupings based on size.
