Welcome to Manor Organic Farm
Our family
Tucked away in the village of Long Whatton, Leicestershire, our farm has been providing our valued local and national customers with outstanding fresh organic produce since 1989.
Our business is completely focused on family, with founders Graeme and Vivienne looking after the animals and daughter Amy and her husband James looking after the farm shop and Little Farmers.
Our animals
The farm is home to a magnificent herd of rare breed Longhorn cattle, pedigree Lleyn and Polled Dorset sheep, turkeys, chickens, geese and ducks, two goats, three guinea pigs, two rabbits and various other friendly animals! All of our animals have a 100% organic diet and are free range, happy and healthy - no chemicals, no cages and no suffering.
Our organic farm shop
All the meat from the farm is sold in our online shop and through the farm shop. We sell organic beef, lamb, pork, chicken, turkey, venison and an award winning range of home made sausages, burgers and home dry cured bacons and gammon. We also offer organic vegetables, diary, groceries, beer and wine and have our own on-site bakery turning some of our wheat, rye and spelt into freshly baked bread and other treats. Feel free to pop into the shop with the whole family - we’ve got great coffee too!
Our philosophy
We believe that organic farming is a positive philosophy, and is more than just avoiding the use of artificial chemicals and fertilisers. It is a sustainable approach to farming which views the farm as a whole system in harmony with the natural surroundings and nature itself as well as the local community .
Manor Organic Farm is part of a Higher Level Environmental Stewardship scheme which includes restoring wild flower meadows and other traditional grasslands, as well as hedgerow and field margin management. Since arriving here in 1995, we have planted over 1,800 tress and restored two miles of hedgerow. We are also inspected annually by the Soil Association (and annually pass with flying colours!) who certify us as organic. They are the pinnacle of organic certification and uphold the highest standards of animal welfare.
