Our Estate

Our Landscapes

Nature and landscape take precedence, ensuring a thriving environment.

Crops we cultivate

We produce a wide variety of crops on the estate, supporting the production of high quality milling wheat, oats, beans and barley.

Our food journey

From field to fork – our estate farming produces over 400 tonnes of wheat each year, enough to make 680,000 loaves of bread.

Wildlife & Hedgerows

A focus on the biodiversity and natural habitats.

Soil

By reducing pesticides, synthetic fertilisers and adopting new technologies we enhance and protect soil quality. This boosts carbon storage and climate resilience.
