Since then we have planted over 700 trees of 52 different varieties and are adding to our orchards each year. The working farm is home to our sheep, pigs, quail & ducks which graze in the open livestock fields, as well as an edible garden that is incorporated into the menu.
About the Cider -
All fermentation, blending, and bottling happens on-site by experienced cidermakers Isaac, Ben, and Alastair. Our team consists of family members and close friends with a long history on the island who assist with all aspects of the business and the farm.
