WELCOME TO WEST TOWN FARM

Farming should be celebrated because it produces the food that we all need to eat. It is a way of life with traditions, skills and people that should be cherished and looked after. The Environmental Stewardship scheme supports the management of our traditional farmland for the benefit of wildlife. 
Andy Bragg - Farmer

We hope that you enjoy exploring the farm through this website as much as we enjoy working here at West Town!

The Environmental Stewardship Scheme has allowed us to create a whole area for farm based learning. Click the Farm Trail sign to start exploring this resource.
