Talk on Sustainable Farming & Climate Change by Spencer Christie, Permaculture Diploma Holder, Lauriston Farm, Goldhanger
Lauriston Farm is situated on the Blackwater Estuary just outside Goldhanger. It is a 125 acre, fully Demeter certified Biodynamic holding with rare breed cattle and sheep, bee hives, laying hens, vegetables and woodland. Eighty five per cent of the farm is designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest.
Within this, there are also two listed ancient monuments.
Lauriston Farm take great pride in showing people around and have been running farm tours for two years. Each tour takes in all of the above through a relaxed and enjoyable walk for groups of a minimum of four people. The tours are free of charge and typically last for two hours.
They are also developing links with schools and can offer tailor-made visits to link in with the national curriculum. If you are interested in visiting, please contact them to find out more:
