About us

The decision to launch Organeco Ltd after spending 25 years+ in conservation and land management was not something we took lightly. It took a lot of soul searching, discussions and sleepless nights to decide on the best approach.

 

Along the way we asked questions such as :

Do we try to compete in an already crowded 'Ecology consultants' space or do we look at an alternative model? Should we just focus on the UK or look overseas for opportunities as well? How do we best use the talent and knowledge we have?

 

On the back of these discussions 'Organeco' was launched, with the aim to be a one stop shop for biodiversity and sustainability advice and consulting. Since launching we have worked with a number of clients on projects including: Invasive weed management, developinhg green initiatives for a commercial company that led to a Green Apple award for the client and providing various on line training sessions etc etc.

 

At Organeco we pride ourselves in working with a talented pool of freelance consultants and experts (when needed) in their field and this allows us to provide assistance on projects where combined knowledge is required.

 

2022 is already starting to look positive with new partnerships being formed in the areas of sustainable tourism and environmental education, Organeco becoming a member of the FAO Mountain Partnership and persuing an interest in the use of AI and data science within conservation and land management.
