This year instead of planting just one wheat variety, weโ€™re mixing several together!๐ŸŒพ

Each type of wheat has different strengths โ€” some cope better with pests, others with disease โ€” so by growing them together, weโ€™re hoping for a stronger, healthier crop for Harvest โ€™26.

Weโ€™ve also added linseed as a companion crop, which should help with soil health and biodiversity.

Sheep can be easily worried by dogs, even if they donโ€™t make contact. Stress from being chased can cause serious injury, loss of lambs, and lasting harm to the flock.

By keeping dogs on a lead in fields with sheep, youโ€™re protecting the animals, supporting farmers, and making the countryside safer for everyone. ๐Ÿ•โœ…

๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ“ Weigh Day! ๐Ÿ“๐Ÿ‘

Earlier this week we weighed the lambs โ€“ a simple but vital job on the farm. Regular checks help us track growth, spot any that need extra care, and make sure theyโ€™re on target.

By monitoring weight gain over time, we can adjust feed or grazing to keep them healthy and know exactly when theyโ€™re ready for market.

- did you know a recent study found that rearing pigs on pasture with a diverse range of forage boosts their meat with fatty acids which is beneficial to human health?

This is why we are proud to say our sausages are woodland reared and full of flavour!

Available in three different varieties; honey, farmhouse and traditional๐Ÿท

Anyone would think they were ready to moveโ€ฆ and who wouldnโ€™t onto fresh grass?๐ŸŒฑ

During the drought our sheep had been eating some flower mixes due to the lack of grass, but all the rain weโ€™ve had recently has finally got the grass growing again!

This week we had the seed cleaners Evans and Pearce in and despite how it sounds they didnโ€™t put them in soapy water to wash them - instead they sieve out the chaff and small grains so we are only planting the biggest juiciest wheat seeds hoping they provide the same at harvest next year. ๐ŸŒพ

The screenings that are removed are shown in the photo and are used to feed our pigs.

Hopefully we will be planting the clean seed in the next couple of weeks ๐Ÿคž

Bringing a little sunshine to your feed today ๐ŸŒป

Our shepherd, Ash, snapped this lovely photo while out on the rounds the other morning. Sunflowers have been springing up all along our flower margins, creating a cheerful splash of colour โ€” and, even better, providing food for wildlife and pollinators ๐Ÿ๐Ÿฆโ€โฌ›
