A Time of Transition on the Farm
The farm at Bore Place has entered an exciting period of transition. Following the departure of our farming partner to focus on his family farm, we have made the difficult decision to pause our dairy operations and operate without cows for an initial period of 12 months.
During this time, we’ll continue to support neighbouring farmers by offering grazing for their livestock. This pause creates space for the land to rest and regenerate, and for us to reflect on the future.
We're embarking on a year-long, exploratory programme to shape a new long-term land use strategy. This process will help ensure that our farming and land management practices align fully with the Bore Place mission: to support nature recovery, build community resilience, and champion regenerative living.
This is a moment to reset, to be bold, and to think deeply about what our land needs and how it can best serve future generations. We welcome expressions of interest from individuals and organisations who’d like to be part of this conversation. Please email hello@boreplace.org if you would like to take part in the process.
While the farm transitions, everything else at Bore Place continues as usual. Our estate and walking trails remain open to visitors, school groups will keep coming to explore and learn, our Farm Gate stall stays open (though milk will be taking a break), our venue will keep hosting groups and celebrations, and our events programme will carry on growing.
