Millions of BeadaHumok® on Kinder Scout as restoration project nears end
Kinder Scout was first planted with Sphagnum over a decade ago. Thanks to the hard work of Moors for the Future Partnership, the National Trust and many dedicated volunteers, Kinder has become a valuable demonstrator site for the benefits of upland peatland restoration. Before these interventions, the site was a net emitter of CO₂e.
Today, with millions of our BeadaHumok® Sphagnum moss plugs planted on Kinder Scout to accelerate Sphagnum establishment, it is sequestering carbon, supporting richer biodiversity, and delivering improved water management across the landscape.
We’re proud to play a part in such a transformational project: -
Peatland planting season is well underway
The BeadaMoss team are hard at work fulfilling partner orders as the peatland planting season gets underway. This time of year marks the ramp-up of restoration activity across the UK’s moorlands. One of our vans can carry around 90,000 individual BeadaHumok® sphagnum plugs, these are all bound for restoration projects across the Peaks.
Hopefully the weather holds and the contractors can make the most of the planting window!

Sphagnum research project receives Jeff Bezos investment
The founder of Amazon, Jeff Bezos, is backing a University of Manchester research project through the Bezos Earth Fund Greenhouse Gas Removal Ideation Prize. This will help the team to research the best way to restore Sphagnum moss in peatlands across the UK and within wider northern Europe.
We’re proud to be working with our partners at the University of Manchester, helping to supply different species of Sphagnum for their research.
The importance of this research project cannot be understated. Sphagnum moss is vital to the environment. It sequesters carbon, supports biodiversity and is a highly absorbent plant that can reduce the risk of flooding and drought. In short, Sphagnum moss is an eco-hero.
