Our farm is in Farmers Weekly this week!

We’re probably better known for asparagus and the growing side of the farm, so it’s lovely to see the sheep side getting a mention too.

They’ve featured the work we’ve been doing on wormer resistance, including testing six different wormer groups and how the results have changed the way we manage worming here.

A Glamorgan lamb producer revised worming protocols after resistance testing revealed which worm species survived treatments.

We were thrilled to win the George Tucker Memorial Trophy at the Gower Show today, awarded for the most points in the Harvested Field Crops section.

We are very proud of this achievement and what a fantastic day it was.

It was wonderful to catch up with so many familiar faces. Thank you to all the organisers for another fantastic show. 🌾🌱🫜 🏆

We won’t lie… hearing our Gower asparagus called “phenomenal” made us a little emotional. 🥹💚

We’re incredibly proud of what we grow here, and so grateful to everyone who supports our farm and local produce.

But all good things must come to an end – and we’ve now got just 12 days of cutting left this season. So if asparagus is on your shopping list, don’t wait too long!

Thank you for being part of another amazing season. Here’s to enjoying every last spear! 💚 🌱

A lot of hard work happens behind the scenes during asparagus season 🌱

We’re proud to supply fresh Gower asparagus across Wales and grateful for the continued support from everyone we work with — from our wholesale customers to everyone who stops by the farm gate to support local produce.

Even with all the hard work you will always find Farmer David John with a smile on his face!
