Looking forward to welcoming visitors - pop in to see the farm and taste new season honey this Friday and Saturday, 14th and 15th July.

Do you want to learn about farming? This year on the , we are fortunate to have lots of farm tours and one is Maundrils Farm (Facebook Maundrils) on 14th and 15th July 11am-4pm.

Organic registered for 23 years, they are a grassland farm on the coastal levels next to the Bridgwater Bay estuary. Farming alongside nature, they raise beef cattle on diverse pastures, keeping bees & planting for pollinators. They take care to manage ditch and pond habitats for species such as water voles and wading birds, and focus on resilience for soil, water, biodiversity and people.

They are offering short guided walks to see cattle, herb rich pastures and hedge and ditch habitats with explanation of how they farm and why they farm the way they do. Visitors can wander around the kitchen garden, organic vegetable and flower plot and restored orchard with bee hives. Watch bees in an observation hive and taste 'Petals and Pastures' honey produced by bees visiting clovers, phacelia and other flowers growing on the farm. Honey and produce for sale.

This is a valuable opportunity to learn about sustainable farm practices so we can't wait to go!

Booking is not required and the event is free. Please see our webpage for details and directions (in bio).

Does collecting these from the lane at the same time as moving cattle, count as multi tasking? Collage needed for a mini design project.
