About This Site

We are a small nursery based in Somerset, although we tend to class ourselves more as a small farm. We have a plot between Milverton and Langford Budville, which was originally a cottage for Farm workers, dating back to the 18th Century last occupied in the 1960s. Unfortunately it has fallen into ruins, but since taking the property over we keep finding remnants from the previous occupiers, including a very old weak Blackcurrant bush, which we hope to revive and make cuttings from to sample the fruit.

As a philosophy we tend towards organic principals where ever possible, and have a range of helpers including our ducks which provide us with assistance in the garden and in protecting our Hostas.
