Stream Farm is situated in a hidden valley high up in the Quantocks in Somerset. We sell organic beef, chicken, lamb, sheepskins, pork, apple juice and stream-fed, line-caught rainbow trout. We shall soon be selling spring water.
Our livestock graze the permanent pasture and our red and white clover leys throughout the Spring and Summer and for much of the Autumn when the pedigree Dexter cattle are moved to winter in our barns and to eat our own silage, hay and oats in the long winter months. We have calves all the year round and pedigree Hampshire Down lambs in the late Spring and Summer. Our rainbow trout grow in a hatchery fed by the stream and are soon to be hot-smoked on the farm. Our Devonshire Gold chickens are reared naturally on plenty of land from day-old chicks to 12 weeks. Our sheepskins are organically tanned in Wales and can be used in cots and cribs or as rugs or throws. Our pigs tend to be a cross between Gloucester Old Spot, Berkshire or Saddleback and one of the bigger breeds so that they produce sausages galore. The apple juice is made from a special blend of five apple varieties on a south-facing slope and our Spring water bubbles up in a copse in the middle of one of the fields.
