Margent Farm innovate and collaborate
to help support our precious planet.
Margent is a hemp farm located in Cambridgeshire England. Our name comes from the margin surrounding our 50 acres of arable fields which acts as a protection zone and natural habitat for wildlife. We are committed to nurturing the topsoil, air and water by practicing organic and regenerative farming methods.
Hemp captures carbon as it grows, absorbing it from our atmosphere and converting it to biomass. Using that ‘locked-in’ carbon for product prototypes we hope to inspire a low impact circular economy.
The Margent farmhouse itself is made primarily of hemp from our first harvest. ‘Flat House’ was designed by Material Cultures Formerly a cattle yard and shed it remains off-grid and is powered by solar, wind and a bio-mass boiler.
