Redborne School Farm: August 2014

Nothing remains static in either Education or Agriculture and of course at Redborne we are specialists in both. As such we are having a rearrange of our holdings which should see some exciting new endeavours over the coming months and years. We are currently in the process of moving our grazing land to just over 16 acres of what will become new pasture. With this we hope top deliver new lessons in grass management, produce fodder for the farm and for sale as well as, expanding our flock of sheep to include a range of valuable, rare and native UK sheep.

To this end we have already completed construction of the field shelters. Sticking to our ethos of using local or in this case traditional craftsmen / women we have completed the construction of two very large and bespoke field shelters with Pool Cottage Sectional buildings. Based in Shropshire they create hand built and finished buildings from ornamental chicken houses (Shaped from beach huts to gypsy caravans) to larger farm buildings such as field shelters like ours. All buildings are crafted in a small work shop, are highly engineered and made from very high grade timber. The joints and angles are even planed and finished by hand to millimetre precision.
