Who we are
About the farm
In the heart of Tower Hamlets in East London we run a 4.5-acre (1.8 ha) working mixed farm as an educational charity; local residents founded the farm in 1979 on a site bombed in the Second World War. We grow vegetables, fruit and herbs without artificial fertilisers or pesticides, using hand tools, and keep sheep, goats, pigs, chickens, ducks and geese, including rare and heritage breeds. Every Saturday we sell our produce and eggs from our own stall at the farmers' market held on the farm, once a year we offer our own lamb, goat meat and pork, and we also have an online shop and a café. The farm is free to visit from Tuesday to Sunday, and we run guided tours and workshops for schools.

Write a review
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.
