Battle Croft Farm

We shall make sure we plant the ones here we do not have as well for our bees. Thank you Beekeeping Basics and Devils Lake Lavender for the inspiration this sunny morning.

We have just started our planting and this seemed like a good place to start.

Eggs glorious eggs... we have chicken, duck, turkey and goose. Contact us to put an order in. We can deliver to Alfriston and surrounding areas. Chicken £1.50 per 1/2 dozen Duck £2.00 per 1/2 dozen Turkey £1.25 per egg Goose £3.00 per egg

Such an essential service and a brilliant way to get around the villages including if you need a no drive way to visit us in Wilmington or pop into The Giant's Rest Wilmington

Morning coffee having a chat with the #longmanofwilmington and feeling #grateful for so much #southdownsnationalpark

I love the morning #geese dance when they are let out. They check everything is where it should be, chase off the crows and then waddle back to the river for a morning swim #sundayfunday #geeseofinstagram

Sometimes you just have to stop work and take in the view... #feelinglucky to live and farm on the fabulous #southdownsnationalpark

I can never remember how many #geesealaying in the song but we have at least one and they make the most fabulous nests. #geese #smallholder #iloveeggs

It’s true #loveneverdies new buds and new life on the farm #happyfarmer

We now have #turkeys laying as well. Amazing speckled eggs. So beautiful #smallholding #southdownsnationalpark #farmfresheggs

So this little dot arrived this morning swiftly followed by another... number. 2 was a little poorly but after a bellyful and the equivalent to a large g&t rallying well. #lambing is nearly done

This #robin chatting to me and keeping watch over the newborn #lambs #lovenature

Breakfast? #goose #duck #chicken freshly laid this morning #farmfresheggs ... egg cups not laid this morning!

Ewe told me this morning I really do not have time to #paintmynails there is #lambing to be done #notinthecityanymore lovely evening though thank you @louiseclareholistics @nutshair76 in aid of #eastbournefoodbank

Oh wow....#pieweek @thegiantsrest fantastic #steakandstilton think we may be eating here tomorrow as well.

When you actually remember to make #pancakes and remember the scales and whisk are in the #lambing barn! Reclaimed them and knocked up a batch of #lamb milk at the same time now to make sure I have put the right mix in the bottle...
