The middle field, marked as ‘Skylark Field’ on the maps at the farm, has a fence around it, along with the north field. These fields are vital for wildlife, especially our endangered coastal birds. Together, they make our ‘wildlife protection zone’. Click here to read about our wildlife and biodiversity work. This is why we ask visitors to stay out of these fields, especially with dogs.

In 2025, we will begin preparation work to start growing food in the Skylark Field, by sowing a cover crop.

Our long-term plan is to plant more agroforestry alleys (long strips of trees) with grains growing in between. We will leave the field margins for wildlife. Farming this way means the farmland can support wildlife as well as providing crops for us.
