What is Organic Farming?

• It's healthy - Organic food reveals a strong trend towards higher levels of mineral and vitamin C contents, as well as producing more antioxidants which have a beneficial effect on humans.
• No additives are contained in organic food.
• The high organic standards of the Soil association ensure the highest quality of soil management and animal welfare. All organic farms are inspected at least once every year.
• Pest control is achieved through traditional crop rotations and wildlife corridors such as hedges and Beetle banks which attract predatory insects.
• Fertility is maintained by the use of Green manures and well composted farmyard manure.
• Genetically modified crops, synthetic pesticides and the routine use of antibiotics are all prohibited.
• It is good for the wildlife and the environment

We will be open to the public on 10th June as part of the National farms open day.
