About me
I went back to family farm 11 years ago after re training in herbal medicine and practicing for a few years as well as working in my husbands music education business. My parents farm became organic in 2000 and was an organic dairy with 100 cows. It now has a small suckler beef herd, easy care sheep and grows wheat and oats all of which I manage. My husband and I have also purchased a neighbouring small farm (60 acres) that is grazed by my parents’ finishing cattle. I’m interested in nutrition and increasing biodiversity through growing wildflower meadow, herbs and ancient grains.
