24.01.2022 High quality weed free oaten hay shedded or discount for hay outside. Enquire for a price.

18.01.2022 Here are some of our 2017 crops, the picture on the left is what we call a multi species cover crop consisting of beans,tillage radish, peas, vetch, oats, rye corn and barley. We grow these in our rotations to provide the soil biology with the different exudates that each plant releases from its roots as they sequester carbon from the atmosphere which is converted to simple sugars through photosynthesis to attract and feed the microbes which in turn provide the plant with th...e nutrients and minerals needed to grow and stay healthy. This symbiotic relationship has been happening for millions of years but as a result of growing single species crops ,increased synthetic fertiliser , fungicides and pesticides this link has become broken and the plants are becoming less nutrient dense. There is more living organisms in a teaspoon of healthy soil than people on earth, with most soil containing plenty of nutrients just lacking the biology to make nutrients available. So here on our farm we treat them like our above ground livestock, we keep them covered ( residue or living plants) ,fed ( cover crops and biological fertiliser) and don’t disturb ( limit soil disturbance. We test our plants for mineral density with a refractometer which indicates the sugar and mineral levels in plants with ours always in a good range reassuring us we are growing quality produce.
