Our Farm
The Chiltern Hills are in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB).
It was in 1992 that the release of Spanish Red Kites was undertaken, as a result of public support along with sponsorship from the Getty Family. Two of the chosen and successful release sites were on Bosmore Farm land (part of Red Kite Farms).
In 1997 Red Kite Farms chose to commence the conversion to organic status and became organic in 1999.
Subsequently the Farm joined the HLS (Higher Level Stewardship) programme run by Natural England.
The Dairy herd was dispersed and the farming system then included:
- Arable crops
- Aberdeen Angus Suckler herd
- Lleyn sheep were added in 2012
An interest in rare sheep developed including Herdwick, Soay, Jacob sheep and finally we discovered Blacknose Swiss Valais.
Everyone at Red Kite Farms have most definitely fallen in love the Valais breed – our focus.
