We are delighted to announce plans are now at an advanced stage to re-introduce our Pertwood Organic Fruit & Seeds Muesli.

We are increasing the pack size to 1kg (from 650gm) responding to requests from customers. The recyclable pack has been simplified and the muesli is now contained in a fully biodegradable inner bag, so no more plastic!

Watch our website for the latest news of when you will be able to buy our muesli online, or if you are in the area, you are welcome to visit the farm.

About

Pertwood is made up of 2,600 organic acres, growing cereals, raising sheep and encouraging wildlife to flourish.

Tucked into the south west corner of Wiltshire is our rolling organic farm that spreads across 2,600 acres. Set upon ancient chalk downland, Pertwood was purely a sheep farm until like many farms, the outbreak of WWII brought the need to plough up more land for food. Since then Pertwood has operated a classic mixed organic farming programme of grains, legumes, and grass leys grazed by sheep and beef cattle.

Back

At Pertwood, we are passionate about caring for wildlife and our fragile environment. For more than thirty years we have been chemical-free and pledge to stay that way. Naturally, we think this is the best way to farm!

Wildlife

A haven for all sorts of species

Read More

At Pertwood we are proud of our success in attracting a vast variety of species, all of whom are safe in our environment: birds, mammals, butterflies, insects, they all thrive in and on our ancient Wiltshire down lands. We employ a consulting entomologist and our research into insect life and micro-organisms is continuing as we believe that is essence of soil health. The RSPB recognise the importance of our habitat and farming methods and hold us up as an example what can be achieved, using chemical-free, sympathetic farming techniques. Corn buntings, in decline in most areas of the UK are thriving on our farm.

Roe deer take advantage of the grassy stubbles, and the lack of predators, to graze in the open around the farm.

Farming

Organic works - we've proved it

Read More

We have been an organic farm for more than thirty years. We mainly grow oats, barley and rye and next year, we plan to grow wheat. Our yields are consistently competitive with many agri-chemical farms, plus we have the bonus of lower input costs and we are rewarded by healthier soil together with the satisfaction that we are preserving the environment for future generations.
