WHO WE ARE
Since having taken over the farm in October 2004 we have been steadily developing Lower Roundhurst Farm, finding new markets and introducing new animals.
Our aim is to produce the highest quality meat possible within a context of caring for the countryside, its farm animals and wildlife for the benefit of ourselves, our neighbours, the wider community and future generations.
At Lower Roundhurst Farm we believe that the quality of life of our animals has a great bearing on the quality of meat produced. We rear our animals naturally and with great concern for their welfare. The Soil Association defines health in animals as "a positive physical and mental state" satisfying "all the animals' needs, including behavioural needs, not just the avoidance of cruelty".
At the heart of our philosophy is our desire to enhance and work with natural biological cycles. We aim for co-existence with rather than dominance over nature. Organic farming is recognised by the UK government as better for the environment causing lower levels of pollution and improving soil fertility with natural organic matter. Wildlife is no longer poisoned and a balanced population of bees, butterflies, birds and wild animals is encouraged. Organic farming produces livestock that are robust and able to resist disease and their meat is richer in healthy Omega 3 oil than grain fed animals - it's better for them and better for us.
Everyone at Lower Roundhurst is fully committed to the ideals of sustainable farming and their responsibilities as stewards of the countryside. We are delighted to offer our customers the ability to trace the source of their food from our fields to their forks and encourage people to visit us and see for themselves.
You will have the comfort of knowing exactly how your food is produced; can be confident that the animals that provide your meat are cared for with the greatest concern for their welfare, with plenty of space to live a natural life and grow at a pace which suits the animal and not the supermarket; that your delicious vegetables are grown purely as nature intended.
Open days and other events are published on our events page. We look forward to welcoming you at Lower Roundhurst Farm.

"A real gem of a farm, producing the best organic meat reared in fields outside the door. Hens practically laying eggs on the door step. What could be fresher than that."
