First cut of new ley grass 2026 is officially done! Fresh grass covered to turn into silage, getting everything prepped and stored for the cattle’s winter feed. A big job ticked off and a great start to the season 🌱🚜 🐄 ☀️

Turn out day is always a good one.
First day out in the field after a long winter indoors, and the cows didn't waste a second making the most of it!
Spring is definitely here ☀️ 🐄

Our annual visit to a local care home.

We took some of our lambs to visit a local care home, the moment the lambs arrived, faces lit up and the room filled with smiles,
For many of the residents, it brought back precious memories — of farms, of childhood, of simpler times. Watching them stroke the lambs seeing the calm and happiness it brought, was incredibly moving.
It’s amazing how something so small and gentle can make such a big difference. Today wasn’t just a visit — it was a moment of connection, comfort, and pure joy.
We feel so lucky to have been part of it 🤍

After what feels like endless rain, there’s some bright news from New House Farm 🐑💛
Lambing is well underway, and we’re delighted to say the grandchildren’s ewes have lambed too! Seeing the next generation so proud of “their” sheep makes this busy season even more special. New life, family and the next generation learning the ropes.
The fields may be muddy and the wellies have been working overtime, but the barns are full of tiny bleats, wobbly legs, and big smiles.
Some positive news that makes it feel like spring has officially sprung. ☀️ 🐑 🥰 xx
