We decided we wanted to go on our own path and push the ever growing regenerative farming movement in our own way so set about enquiries to rent land locally to start up our own small scale enterprise.
We landed on our feet to have our vision welcomed by a local landowner who allowed us 70 acres of organic permanent pasture to rent. Protecting our soils health and providing customers with direct doorstep delivery of the highest quality and welfare produce money could buy was what we were hoping to achieve.
In 2023 we received recognition on multiple levels and we can proudly say we are now the youngest first generation tenants to secure a National Trust tenancy renting over 900 acres and raising our family on a beautiful farm on the Killerton estate.Working Hours :The days to cover the 30 hours are open to negotiation.
