Who we are
About the farm
We are a fourth-generation dairy farming family in Purton, Wiltshire: we have milked at Quarry Farm since 1953, and the family's farming began in the late 1800s. Our 60 dairy cows, a mixed Brown Swiss, Jersey and Fleckvieh herd, graze the farm's 80 acres (about 32 ha) for eight months of the year, and since 2016 the calves have stayed with their mothers until weaning. We produce A2 raw milk and ice cream, and keep the cows healthy with homeopathy and close work with our vet, keeping antibiotic use to a minimum. Visitors are welcome at the farm, next at our Dora's BIG Feed-up family event in October.

How we check reviews: the reviewer's email address is verified with a confirmation email, and one address can review a farm only once. We do not check whether the reviewer has bought from the farm. Every review is checked by a person before it appears; reviews that are offensive, contain personal data or are not about the farm are not published. The “Producer” label is given only when the email address belongs to a FarmAtlas farm. The farm can reply once.
