Newton Farm Foods
A family farm run by the Gay family with 4th generation Joshua farming regeneratively to improve soil health and biodiversity and reduce carbon footprint. The farm is based around a 650 Duchy of Cornwall farm around the pristine 18th century village of Newton St Loe. Over a period of 20 years a small on farm butchery has developed into a vibrant farm shop based just 3 miles west of the world heritage city of Bath. The farm aims to produce as much as possible for the farm shop, including all of its grass-fed beef produced from 120 head of pedigree South Devons and cross bred sucklers, lamb from 250 sheep, and pork from the offspring of 20 breeding sows. Joshua and dad Hugh have constructed their own ‘chicken caravan’ for truly free-range chickens to follow round after the grazing cattle and sheep and produce eggs for the farm shop. A variety of fruit and vegetables grown on the farm are also sold through the farm shop, or used in the busy café, where delicious meals are produced from scratch for the seasonal menu.
