Who we are

About the farm

We, Helen and Martin Arnold, have been farming at Holly Farm since August 2020 – a 9-acre (approx. 3.6 ha) smallholding in East Devon, in the Blackdown Hills, with an 18th-century Grade II listed farmhouse. We grow fruit and vegetables without chemical pesticides or artificial fertilisers (we are not certified organic), and we also keep hens, quail and pigs, while our hives are looked after by a beekeeper. During the growing season we sell our produce from our roadside kiosk at the farm, we put together veg boxes in season, and we sell pumpkins in the run-up to Halloween.
