Our Story
In 2012 we set up life together as husband and wife and business partners. We had the opportunity to move back to the family farm and contract fatten outdoor bred pigs alongside our full time employment. In June 2019 we opened a small shop on the farm selling our homegrown pork locally butchered and in September 2019 we took back the grassland to manage, and graze our small herd of native Longhorn cattle. The future is looking exciting as we continue to expand what we have started keeping the environment at our core.

Change of Plan
ButtonIn a bid to make the most of our grassland whilst we were replanning our rotatation paddocks we made silage from our river meadows to ensure a continuous supply of grass throughout the winter and without the need for concentrates.

What's Next
We plan to expand upon our current goals of improving the soil, reducing reliance on artificial inputs whilst producing the healthiest crops we can. We will be improving our water and electricity supply to sucessfully divide the grassland into smaller paddocks so that we can reintroduce livestock and mob graze the whole farm. We also want to incorporate more trees and lengthen rest periods using diverse covers in the arable land and yet further increase our biodiversity and improving the health and resilience of our soil.
