Hello & Welcome
to
Glanllyn Farm

Thank you heaps for your interest in our small, but hugely nature friendly farm

Sat on the banks of the River Elwy in beautiful North Wales, we farm regeneratively to produce healthy food and habitat from healthy land. From our no-dig vegetables, to the top notch lamb our small flock of home bred ewes produce, to smooth honey and bright eggs – we love selling direct to folk who want to support an ecological approach to managing farmland.

About Us & The Farm

Hi! I’m Sam and my husband is Alex, and we’re working to improve the health and biodiversity of our farmland, the river and historic woodlands.

 

I’m the farmer – or the goat servant if you ask our mischievous loves, Alex is a maths teacher, and together we’re doing our best to breathe life back in to the old place – working to regenerate our soils, plus create resilience in the face of climate change by working with, and enhancing, nature.

 

Our Farm to Fork sales direct to our much treasured customers help us to put much more back in to the land and environment. Taking a “from the roots up” approach to pasture, plants, our high welfare livestock and the wildlife, continuously working for a healthy and resilient biodiverse landscape.

 

We know the more diverse range of flora we allow to grow with our careful management, the more fauna can benefit from the extra available food and habitat.

 

Careful management of our “Mini Mob” of grazing livestock help us to regenerate previously eroded soils. And with the aid of resilient diverse pastures, hedgerows and trees, which also all benefit the bugs, birds and bats, as well our ruminants health, we’re farming for healthy soils with good levels of water and carbon retention.

 

But before I drop in to my Nature-and-Environment-Loving-Nerd mode, seeing me witter on further about the possibility of reversing climate change through regenerative agriculture (see Kiss The Ground movie, Netflix) we’ll move smartly on to our produce.

 

High Welfare & Nature Friendly Produce

Each month we produce either deliciously lean goat meat or succulent lamb boxes. Please don’t hesitate to get in touch with any questions or pre-orders (see below).

 

We offer delivery of boxes across North Wales. And collections from our tiny pop up shop are obviously more than welcome – we’re open Saturdays 10am-2pm.

 

Honey from the farms apiary is available as are eggs from our free range yard hens and the pasture reared hen squad.

 

Vegetable Boxes are available seasonally from our no-dig patch, but please bare with us as we learn the veggie growing ropes – it’s the newest of our foodie endeavors!

 

Seasonally we have hogget and mutton available too – hogget is slow grown lamb which is a year old, or more, and the meat is so tender. Just as with our lamb, these have enjoyed a pasture fed naturally grown life.

 

So as not to miss out, please sign up to our farm newsletter through the “Contact Us” bit.

The Meat Boxes

Our goat and lamb boxes come in a choice of sizes as listed below. Whole boxes need to be pre-ordered so our butcher can make the best of the cuts for you – please get in touch with any questions, for some helpful tips or more info.

 

Our packaging is made up of recyclable boxes and those sent by courier, have Woolcool natural and sustainable insulation inside with reusable ice pouches. And by law all meat has to be wrapped and sealed in plastic. So, we’ve planted hedges to help offset the carbon footprint of this.
