Manor Farm Wilton
Regenerative farming on the edge of the Pewsey Vale
We are a family run farm with my father Peter now retired and my mother Heather sadly deceased passing over the reigns to me and my wife Millie nearly 20 years ago. We have 4 kids in their teens, some at school, some at Agricultural College who are all involved in the farm in some way.
The farm is a highly mechanised commercial arable farm going through a number of changes. We are introducing some re-generative farming practices, as well as re-introducing livestock back into the farm rotation.
We have diversified our farming income by building holiday lets, workshops and commercial units.
The farm is built on its great team; Darren who drives the Bateman, Glyn in the John Deere, Wayne on the New Holland and Clare keeps us all in line from the office. Our agronomy advice comes from the brilliant Russell of Agrii and we are a pretty settled happy team with the newest recruit joining us over 5 years ago.
Farming is a great privilege, to be able to live and work in this beautiful place and to see the culmination of your year’s efforts achieved in the form of harvest can be the most satisfying and rewarding job possible. However, particularly in this country we are at the mercy of the weather and the whims of politicians, so nothing is very certain. Have a look around our website to discover more about what we do.
