We are young, enthusiastic farmers who sell our own produce on our busy, working farm.
Our happy hens provide the freshest, golden-yolked eggs, and we grow our own specialty vegetables year-round.
We care about our animals. We also believe in fun. Come and see us -- we'd love to blow your minds...
Farmer Ben
Hen Master/Garden Pro
Farmer Ben grew up on a pig and sheep farm near Helmsley. It was only when he left Yorkshire to go to university that he realised how unique his upbringing had been. It is his dream to share real farming with the general public and to break down the barriers between the consumer and their food.
In his previous life, Ben was an exploration geologist, setting up remote camps in the Australian desert and Indonesian rainforest.
Farmer Em

Farmer Em isn't from a farming background - she thought she was from the countryside until she visited Farmer Ben. She fell in love with the farming life and now can't get enough of it!
Emma is also the highly acclaimed author of two novels - How To Be A Good Wife and The Last Photograph. She writes under her maiden name - Emma Chapman.
