Current News and Events

We will next be attending local markets in March 2012. In the meantime, you are of course welcome to visit the farm and meet the animals, and purchase meat from our freezers! This page will be updated in due course when market dates are confirmed.

We attend a number of local fayres and events in the North Devon Area, where we sell our meat and produce. However, please do phone us if you are passing, as we welcome visitors and are happy to sell our produce "from the farm gate".
