Who we are
About the farm
At Upper Town Farm in Raskelf, North Yorkshire, we have been keeping rare and heritage British livestock breeds for over 35 years; we currently keep more than 20 breeds – including Irish Moiled cattle, Soay, Boreray and Manx Loaghtan sheep, Tamworth and British Saddleback pigs, Bagot goats and heritage turkeys – and we work with the Rare Breeds Survival Trust to help preserve them. We offer our own hand-reared lamb, beef, pork and turkey, breeding stock and, from March, raw fleeces. We host educational farm visits for nursery classes, school groups and clubs.

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.
