The Farm
Our family run
farm is situated in two locations at the villages of Grampound and St.
Ewe. We have been farming within the
parish of creed since 1901 just 3 miles from our farm shop, which is situated
in the village of Probus.
Wherever possible
we use traditional farming method thus ensuring the high standards of quality
and husbandry. We breed cattle, sheep
and pigs. We grow a variety of
vegetables to supply the farm shop and we grow a variety of cereals, which we
use for animal feed.
Our cattle are
South Devon’s, which are prized for their high quality beef carcases. The beef from our South Devon’s have fine
fat marbling, which ensures the meat is moist and full of flavour when it is
cooked. The cattle eat grass throughout
the spring, summer and autumn months.
In the winter the cattle are fed on silage (a natural method of
preserving grass). We do not use
artificial growth promoters or hormones and we have never had a case of B.S.E.
