ABOUT THE FARM

WELCOME TO OUR FARM

On our 120-acre farm, we combine biodynamic and organic practices with regenerative land management, including agroforestry, permaculture, rotational grazing, and crop rotation.

We nurture soils and biodiversity, letting nature thrive to create healthy ecosystems that support the vibrant produce we grow.

Through closed-loop systems, like green manures and livestock-driven fertility, we work with the land, not against it, to ensure its long-term vitality.

VEGETABLES

The Apricot Centre’s farm grows a wide range of seasonal vegetables year round in our fields and polytunnels, with rotations that keep winter salads coming and summer crops flourishing. Produce goes into our veg boxes and at our Totnes Market Stall with weekly staples like potatoes, onions and carrots alongside other seasonal surprises.

FRUIT

We grow a variety of fruit across the farm, harvesting local favourites such as apples, berries and plums, and turning any surplus into cordials and juices.

MEAT

Our livestock are raised on pasture as part of the farm’s mixed system, grazing in rotation to build soil and biodiversity. The farm produces beef and pork, all from animals reared outdoors with care and respect for their natural behaviour

GRAINS & PRESERVES

We cultivate heritage and regenerative grains as part of our crop rotations, milling them on-site and using other surplus produce to make jams, chutneys and preserves that reflect the full farm cycle.

FLOWERS

Our flower beds, grown biodynamically on the farm, brim with seasonal blooms that support pollinators, brighten homes and bring farm-fresh colour through spring and summer, with dried arrangements available through the winter months.
