Who we are
About the farm
We farm at Westacre near Sampford Courtenay in Devon: on our calf-at-foot dairy we keep around 70 Jersey and Jersey-cross cows that are fed only on pasture (with hay and silage grown on the farm or sourced locally in winter) and are milked just once a day. We sell our pasteurised, unhomogenised A2 milk in reusable glass bottles and hand-make artisan ice creams and sorbets; we also raise Belted Galloway cattle and British Lop pigs. We are certified Animal Welfare Approved and Grassfed by A Greener World. Our produce is available from our Moor Taw Honesty Shop Shed at Westacre, open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week; farm tours can be booked by arrangement.

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.
