| The farm extends to 53 acres and is bounded on one side by a stream and wooded valley. Our livestock includes a Jersey house-cow, 150 ewe flock of sheep, goats,pigs, chickens and the usual cats and dogs. Amongst them are rare, minority and old fashioned breeds. All the animals are friendly and approachable. With conservation in mind we have planted several hundred deciduous hardwoods and are engaged in extensive hedgerow renovation. The farm is managed non-intensively and we are deeply committed to maintaining our land in a sustainable and sensitive way. | ||

Some of the flowers are grown drying as well as cutting and amongst both flowers and vegetables you will find culinary, medicinal, dyestuffs an pot-pourri herbs. 'Harton Farm Preserves' has a range of about 15 varieties of jam and chutney made from our own seasonally available produce. Home-spun wool made from our own fleeces is also for sale. Some of it is dyed using naturally occurring dyestuffs which give soft warm colours. |
