About this Event
About the event
Join us at Open Farm Sunday in Nocton to see first-hand how we farm in harmony with the environment.
Learn how we care for the environment around us to create a mutually beneficial system for pollinators and other wildlife who call our farms home. Discover more about how we generate renewable energy to aid production and how this forms part of our regenerative farming model by reducing waste and maintaining nutrients in the soils across our farms.
Booking for this event is essential due to its popular demand. We’re charging a small fee for car parking, which will help us to maintain our new engagement centre which allows us to offer free school visits for local children.
