Who we are
About the farm
The Pott family has farmed locally for three generations; today we farm over 500 acres (about 200 ha), growing wheat, barley, oilseed rape and beans and keeping cattle, sheep and horses. On the 34-acre field at Watergo Farm near Mickleover, on the edge of Derby, we have kept 12,000 free-range hens since 2008, and most of our eggs go to supermarkets twice a week. At the farm we sell fresh eggs from our egg vending machine, our own ice cream made in small batches with our own free-range eggs, and milkshakes, butter and cheeses from our chilled vending machine; we are open Monday to Saturday, 9–6.

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.
