Environmental economy

We are very keen to encourage economic activity in the National Park which benefits from and enhances the local environment. This type of activity helps to make life in the National Park more sustainable. Examples of this could include:

·         Environmental technologies

·         Environmental land management

·         Traditional building restoration

·         Landscape enhancement

·         Sustainable tourism and leisure

·         Sustainable field sports

·         Local food and drink

If you have an idea for a project or business that could contribute towards developing our environmental economy, please contact the Sustainability and Economy Team on 01398 323665 or email TCstokes@exmoor-nationalpark.gov.uk / DTJames@exmoor-nationalpark.gov.uk.
