News From The Farm

 

The Bellis Family have farmed land in Holt since the 1860s. Today we have a Market Gardening Farm growing a wide selection of fruit & vegetables for you to buy in the farm shop. This fresh produce is wonderful as it can go from field to shop in a matter of minutes & with zero food miles. In the summer months we open some of the fields for Pick Your Own. Jim Cross has been our farm manager for the last 27 years and he works hard through out the year to provide our customers with quality produce.
