We were more than a little bit excited to find this little pyramidal orchid in our herbal ley yesterday. It's one of the clearest signs to us that we are doing the right thing with our grazing and we're on the right track. I'll try and explain. . . S
Love bringing the cattle back to this field, 'the paddock'. It was the the first field we put them in when they arrived on the farm (2 years ago next month) and it's in the heart of our holding. It is one of our least diverse pastures but at least it
We're excited to tell you about our next beef sale! This time we're teaming up with our friends at Eastleach Downs Organic Farm and offering their fabulous pork from truly free range, organic, happy pigs, alongside our pasture-fed beef boxes. Scroll
Evening all. Nothing like a bit of fencing to finish the day during sunset. This is our last calf of the season - a beautiful heifer calf (who needs a name incidentally...) with her fabulous mum. . . . . . #calvingseason #calving2020 #calvesofinstagr
The whole family getting involved to help our newest arrival get his first colostrum. He had a bit of a difficult birth and needed help to have his first feed but a few hours later was helping himself. 24 hours later, he was skipping around the yard!

This morning's new arrival, welcome to the earth little one. We seem to be repeating last year's gender imbalance with the latest tally at 2 female and 8 male calves! . . . . #calvesofinstagram #calf #newlife #spring #pinknose #bluesky #mothersofinst

Calving started! 3 so far. Multiple checks a day made so much easier for living a few minutes from the farm. The eagle-eyed amongst you may notice that one of the calves is a black Angus x Freisan. Sadly our first calf was stillborn, but we have a ra

Didn't think we'd be getting into our parkland fields for months, but then it started drying up. These are our calves from the last 2 years, happily grazing in the sunshine today. We don't live on site at our farm so we are making as many excuses to
Feeling grateful for our health, our family, our friends, our neighbours, our farm, our cattle, our dogs, our village shop, our village school & the sunshine. Thank you!
Attempting to use some much neglected creative skills to jazz up our flyer to Sherborne residents! Next week we move into the village where our farm is sited. It'll be just up the road & within walking distance if we feel so inclined. Which is q
#Lizard on a slightly chilly January morning. Anyone know why it might have been out and about? I guess the cattle may have disturbed it's hibernating spot? I tried to warm it a little in my hands then placed it in a nook on a south facing patch of s
I enjoyed the scent of apple and cinnamon wafting over from our neighbours @bensonsfruity this morning! The cows will be knocking on the door for a drink 🐮🍏 #bensons #fruitjuice #goodneighbours #themob #balegrazing #hayforbreakfast #cotswolds #glou
Feeding my beautiful cows at dusk. I've realised that I need to become a little more visible if I'm going to succeed in my resolution to be seen equally as a joint partner in our farm venture. Too many "Matt's cows" and "Matt's farm&qu
