Highfields Farmhouse

It can be so frustrating watching the new born animals wobble about trying to find the right place for their first meal! #calves #newborn #firstdrink

Making the most of the terrible weather today and using the time to make a new mounting frame for the chain harrows

Time for the Shropshire's to get to some grass!

We've had the power cut to the farm tonight so I've got the gennie on the job to give us light for lambing and to make a cup of tea! Extension leads into this barn and the lambing shed where the in lamb sheep are so we can have some light on the job #powercut #blackout #lambing2019 #cupoftea #essentials

Triplets first up for #lambing2019

Our latest blog is up. This time we're talking about preparations for lambing, which is nearly upon us!

After spending yesterday afternoon in A&E because a sheep knocked her knee cap off, she's soon back on her feet again. Think she needs educating on how crutches work though 😂 #farmlife #hardasnails #sheep #shropshiresheep #dislocation

If you're ever not sure where to find the wife... Try the goat shed! 😂

Ground cleared and leveled for our new building. Great way to start 2019. Thanks Harry R White Plant Hire for doing the work.
More pics to follow when it's less snowy and miserable!

Out for a walk this morning and realised the missus wasn't there anymore. Turned round to find her making friends with someone else's cows! #walking #countrylife #cows #cheating

Happy New Year to all our friends, followers and customers. We wish you all the best for the year and look forward to continuing to provide you with top quality service throughout the year

This latest blog is all about a little idea we had for engaging the public in our farm and the animals they're seeing on their walk. Turned out to be a great success and something we'll definitely be continuing with in future

It's getting cold and miserable out so it's time for the goats to come inside for winter. They're all snuggled down with some fresh straw and a tyre based obstacle course! #goats #warmandcosy #winter #winter2k18 @ Highfields Farmhouse

Something a little different today... Delivering top soil for a raised bed. The kids are all getting involved with unloading @ Chapel en le Frith

Great day out today at the #englishwinterfair with @h.s.illustrations on her #birthday. Nice to see the Saxby #longhorns in the prizes again too @ English Winter Fair

Check out the latest blog from the farm, looking back on the long hot summer and looking forward to the long snowy winter!
