Good evening all! Life is as busy as ever here at the farm. We are getting ready for Christmas. Our beef animal has gone in. The turkeys are looking lovely, the lambs are chubby and the chicken are getting bigger! We have some new farm family members - alpacas. They joined us earlier in the year and have been protecting our wonderful chicken flock from the buzzards who had started to think we farmed to feed them not you! The alpacas are great and are lovely to look at from my kitchen window! We are very excited that we now have our produce in some new outlets - Clealls of Corfe Castle and Holme Farm Shop at Holme Nurseries. We have also got our chicken and eggs in the Salt Pig in Wareham - excellent for a meal too. Worth calling in - although they unfortunately don't sell our lamb and beef!! (sorry James!) They are open until 7 pm so you can have access to local meat even after the butchers have closed!

Better sign off - tea is ready!

Hi its Andrew here, Just in from building our new layer shed- the new birds are arriving on tuesday so there should be some new eggs around soon!!! :D It's a poly tunnel look alike type shed on metal skids with double skinned insulated roof. Have a look over the hedge at the top of the layer field between our lane and the entrance to Rempstone Hall, it's a great view now we've laid the hedge you can see Poole harbour and Brownsea island in the distance- a lovely sight even on a rainy day!

Hello!

Rempstone Farm, home to Cedar Organic, is a family run farm set in the heart of the Isle of Purbeck, Dorset. The varied landscape and lush, productive grass provide the ideal conditions for our cattle, sheep, and chickens to enjoy an outdoor life all year round. Passionate about British food and British farming, we have chosen to become organic as we believe it is increasingly the only defined way of providing you with an assurance of farming with minimal interference and environmental consideration, whilst working towards sustainability.

Establishing our farm in September 2007, we started with nothing but a good practical knowledge of organic farming and a lot of enthusiasm. We have carefully chosen our animals to suit our land. Our herd of Ruby Red North Devon cattle are as beautiful as they sound, and we have a flock of Lleyn sheep. Our Sasso chickens produce flavoursome, succulent meat, tasting as chicken used to, and our flock of Goldline hens lay a delicious egg with a deep yellow yolk.

We are working hard to look after our small part of the British countryside, protecting and nurturing it as a healthy and productive legacy for future generations.
