Weโre back on the land preparing to drill spring barley ๐![]()
![]()
Jamie is cultivating the cover crop weโve had in over winter, while David is applying fertiliser to get the seedbed just right.![]()
![]()
Not long now until the barley goes in, spring is definitely underway. ๐ฑ๐![]()

Winter feeding continues, which remains a challenge in wet ground conditions. We are using the smaller Kubota tractor in the parks, as its lighter footprint helps reduce soil damage. The straw chopper has also proved invaluable for both feeding and bedding.![]()
![]()
The deer have become โtwitchyโ clearly sensing the changing season and are becoming more alert ahead of their planned release back into the parks in early April, weather permitting.

The chickens have been keeping us very well stocked since their arrival and its time we shared their delicious eggs with you!![]()
![]()
Our honesty box is situated inside the entrance off the A158 (the entrance we share with Walled Garden Baumber ). So if you're passing and running short please just pop in and leave some money in the honesty box!
We have also welcomed a further batch of Aberdeen Angus cross calves, who have settled well onto their herbal ley silage and cereal-based diet. ![]()
![]()
Our first group of cattle continue to grow strongly, look very well and are now averaging 465kg.
Two swans were gliding along the River Bain last night.![]()
![]()
One of those small moments that makes you stop for a minute and watch before carrying on. In this case, heading across the field to refuel Jamie who was working nearby, with both diesel and some tea!![]()
![]()
Spring is definitely starting to wake up around the farm now. Itโs lovely to hear the birds again and see the days stretching out.![]()

We are preparing to drill:![]()
![]()
๐Spring barley![]()
๐ฑSpring oats![]()
![]()
These will be sown as soon as soil conditions improve. Timely drilling is essential to maintain quality โ particularly as our oats are intended for human consumption and our barley for malting markets.![]()
![]()
For our spring barley, we are using home-saved seed. This has been professionally cleaned using gravity separation and screening processes to remove small grains and chaff. A nutritional seed dressing has been applied to support early establishment, and the seed has been stored safely in 1 tonne bags ready for drilling.
No plans for meals over the week-end yet? Fresh estate-reared venison could be just what you're looking for. Quick-cook steaks for something simple, or a sirloin joint if you want to make a proper occasion of it for Mother's Day. ![]()
