Coombe Farm
Leading the way in ethical farming.
Hello. Let us try and tell you a bit about who Coombe Farm are, and what makes our farms a little bit different from other farms you might know. Here at Coombe Farm we are ‘organic’. Being organic means a truly natural way of farming. It means our farmers aim to treat and feed their animals in the most natural way possible. Organic farmers aren’t allowed to use chemicals, pesticides and fertilizers on their land. Instead they produce organic food and milk using only natural fertilizers and natural farming methods. This gives you and me the opportunity to buy and taste food that is free from man-made chemicals. Organic food is often thought to taste better and be better for you.
On this website you will learn not only what organic food is, but also how our clever farmers manage to do this using just their own land to grow all the food and fertilizer they feed to their cows and keep their land healthy.
When our farmers use the organic farming methods it also allows the countryside and the other wild animals that share the land with our cows to live as they are supposed to - free from chemicals - and be able thrive as nature intended. Many of our farmers have started various environmental initiatives that help the wild animals to be reintroduced, recover and regain their place in our countryside.
So, here at Coombe Farm we do our best for your local countryside and we also try to tell you where your food comes from. You can come and visit us or we could come into your school. We hope you enjoy your visit to our website and hopefully you will have a better understanding of what ‘organic’ means.

Farming
In many ways farming as a business and livelihood is unique, as it involves not only the production of a product but also the welfare of livestock, the maintenance of the environment and the appearance of our countryside, not just now, but longer term, into the future.
