Spring Into Action: farm on the fell tour
Meet Lisa and Michael on their ‘cow with calf dairy’.
Michael and Lisa are third-generation farmers. They run a small family farm in the Forest of Bowland in Lancashire, producing raw milk, pasture-fed beef, and pork (not to mention delicious gelato from their on-site vending machine). They are regular suppliers of raw milk and pork for Gather, the online North Lancs Food Hub.
They took over the running of the family dairy farm in 2013 expanding the herd to 180 cows by 2020 working all hours and pushing the cows to get the litres from them. It seemed to them, the only ‘person’ benefiting, was the supermarket who they sold our milk to and decided to farm a different way and turned to regenerative agriculture.
Enjoy a ‘behind the scenes’ tour of their farm and hear Michael and Lisa’s story first-hand with a chance to buy some delicious produce from their vending machine.
Date: Saturday 26 April, 14:30 – 16:30.
Venue: Farm on The Fell, Bleasdale, Preston, PR3 1UT.
