Regenerative sheep systems at Fernhill Farm
Jen and Andy farm 3000 sheep regeneratively across the Mendip hills for meat and fibre and are passionate about conservation, regenerative agriculture, rural skills and natural fibres.
Together with their sons they demonstrate that sheep can be the foundation of a regenerative farm, grazing a flock of 3000 (predominantly Romneys) and 50 Aberdeen Angus cattle across the Mendip Hills for ecological outcomes.
They blade shear the entirety of their flock and add value to the wool through a variety of products including fleeces and skins, yarn, clothing etc.
The benefits of their grazing management are measured using 3LMs Ecological Outcome Verification (EOV) which they use to market their produce as verified regenerative.
