Our thirty acre farm is situated on south facing slopes overlooking Chew Valley Lake in North Somerset. When we moved here in December 1995 little planting had been done. Since then we have added a forest garden, ponds, raised vegetable beds, bee borders, a herb garden and a woodland area which are now well-established and give us, and the local wildlife, much pleasure throughout the seasons.
You can now book onto our 2015 programme of courses. The courses are as follows and please click on the links for more information;
