Colin & Vanessa Mills
We purchased Morecombe Farm in October 2012. We fell in love with the beautiful farmland views surrounded by broadleaved woodlands and the patchwork of fields.We both have a passion for birds and wildlife, so it seemed the perfect place to relax and unwind.
We started our farming career with just 25 acres of outdoor pigs in 1991, the business grew over the years with up to 360 outdoor breeding sows and 240 acres of arable. The fall out of "Foot and Mouth" took their toll and the business changed direction in the year 2000. After 12 years in the Wild bird seed industry, producing bird seed for the garden bird table. From "Farm to Garden feeder" - Soar Mill Seeds Limited. The Business was sold in January 2013. So at last we have now got plenty of time to invest and care for Morecombe Farm.
