ORFC 2026 8 – 9 Jan
Join new-entrant farmers Francesca and Hollie as they talk about their journey setting up Nunwell Home Farm in 2021. The farm is based on a share farming agreement with the Nunwell Estate and currently includes 100 native breed cattle, eight breeding sows and 300 laying hens. They also graze conservation sites owned by the National Trust and Wildlife Trust, and in 2024, they started a joint venture with a local chef to set up a butchery and shop. In this open discussion, they will share their struggles and plans, alongside financial challenges they have faced and the importance of collaboration.
