After more than a decade of dedication, we say a heartfelt thank you to, Tony Da Silva on his retirement. Tony has been a steady, passionate presence, always showing up with commitment and care for the farm and everyone in it. His hard work has left a lasting mark and he will truly be missed.

Wishing you all the best in this next chapter, Tony - you’ve earned it. 🌻

Today we remember our founder, Alexander 'Sandy' Mitchell, MBE. It has been eight years since Sandy's passing.

Every year, we gather to remember Sandy, his heart and the legacy he has left our community.

Today felt a little extra special. One of our staff spotted a cardinal minutes before the Farm’s tribute to Sandy. A cardinal bird, which is known to symbolize hope, joy, vitality, and spiritual messages from departed loved ones. They often appear as a sign of comfort or a reminder to keep memories alive. How fitting for today. For those who know us, the cardinal has always been part of the WindReach logo. Somehow, it all just felt connected.

Thank you, Sandy. We miss you! 💗🤍💗

Next time you're at the farm, don't forget to bring your empty egg cartons! You can also purchase free range eggs in our farm store while qualities last! (We generally only use the one dozen size containers - thank you!) 🥚🥚🥚
