Description

About the farm:

On the edge of the Wye Valley in Herefordshire you will find Trecorras Farm, 270 acres of bee friendly, wildlife rich farmland. Some of the farm is under permanent pasture while the rest grows arable crops and herbal leys (for grazing) in a 7 years rotation.

The stars of Trecorras farm are their beautiful Red Poll Cattle. This rare breed is grown here on a 100% forage fed diet, from the meadows, herbal leys, trees and hedgerows of the farm.

In 2012, after a flood lifted and deposited potatoes in the centre of their local village, farm owners John and Julie Joseph decided to work with nature and adopted a no-till (no ploughing) approach to their arable land. Their cattle are housed in winter and their manure is composted to fertilise the arable land. This, and the cattle used in rotation with crops, means that the land is naturally fertile.

“It’s all done by nutrition rather than any chemicals.”

The soil, never ploughed and well mulched, is teaming with life. This ‘small life’ in the soil is the base of the food chain and so the farm buzzes with insects and rings with bird song.

The farm and soils are teeming with life and evidence their effective approach to farming – the farm however is not organic certified, with some herbicides still used on arable land (but not on permanent pasture) to comply with seed production requirements. This does not detract from the truly inspiring journey this farm is on, as it moves along its regenerative journey – leading the way for others to follow. Farms in regenerative transition, like Trecorras need the support of the public, to continue to their story. Produce increasingly nutrient dense foods, whilst regenerating nature, over the years to come.
