Armston Group

All of the hectares farmed under Armston Group are in an Entry Level Scheme, the Higher Level Scheme, or the old stewardship scheme. .

Improved Wood

New hedges have been planted, ponds rejuvenated and 6 meter field margins created. Wild bird seeds are planted to provide for birds in the winter, when food is scarce. Wild flower mixes have also been seeded to benefit insects across the farm.

We have different hedge row heights around the farm, to benefit wild life, short hedges for Yellow Hammers and tall hedges for Turtle Doves.

We have been a LEAF member for a number of years, practising integrated farm management. Efficient production of wholesome food can be combined with care of nature.

Everything we do on this farm is the result of careful decision making with thought of quality, profitability and the environment.



Wild Flower Margins

Wild life is flourishing on our farm. We have nesting Barn owls and breeding English Partridge, combing modern agriculture and the environment.
