Pollardine Farm

Gatten, Shropshire

We are based in the Gatten Valley to the east of the Stiperstones in the Shropshire Hills. We are passionate about the mutual benefits of farming and nature, and we use Holistic Management to deliver this in practice.

What we do

We (Lizzie and Jane) farm together in partnership at Pollardine. Here’s an overview of what keeps us busy! If you have any questions or comments, please get in touch. We’d love to hear from you.

About us

We started working together at Pollardine in 2018. It was supposed to be a short-term arrangement but we are now partners and thoroughly enjoying taking the farm in a new direction.
