About Me

My photo
Hello from the Brownes. We're a family run farm in rural Aylsham. Our farm is home to Robins Rare Breed Oxford Sandy and Black pigs which we breed for their lovely meat (said to be the best tasting meat out of all rare breed pigs) The Farm is also home to Robin & Beckie's Boer Goats bred for their high quality healthy meat low in cholesterol and high in protien) We're also trying to increase the quanity of our very good quailty stock to help improve bloodlines through the country. Jackies Anglo Nubian goats, kept for both their meat, which is incredibly healthy for you and their milk which we're planning to make cheese, icecream, soap, moisturiser and a probiotic drink with. We also keep a few chickens, some traditonal breeds as well as hybrids and some Muscovy ducks for their free range eggs as well as David having arable land to produce home grown cereals for our animals. We also have 3 holiday cottages alongside the farm. These are run by Jackie and Hayley. All visitors have acess to our private section of the river Bure. We'd like to share the farm experience with visitors to Bure Valley Farm and those following our blog. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

Catching Up

Hello There :)  Apologies for our quietness since Feb, we've had some big changes on the farm. Our resident blogger has decided to take some time out for travelling and its taken us a while to get the hang of lol Though hopefully we shall be up and running properly again soon. We've also decided to open our own farm shop with our own homemade range of "Love-Grub" produce from jams, chutneys and cakes to fresh meat, goat milk, goat cheese and hopefully some yummy goat ice creams.... More news to follow. We're also planning a range of soaps using up our excess goat milk as it does wonderfull things to your skin :) 

Its been a crazy summer here and we've got alot of new stock on the farm. Jackies Nubians had 12 kids (2 were pictured in the EDP at the re-opening of the Goat Inn, Skyton) and our Boers had 13!! All kinds of fun haha ... (pics to follow) We were also very lucky to get 5 Kalahari Red young ladies, which we intend to breed alongside our Traditional Boer lines. We had 9 little piglets from Robins pig, along with 17 ducklings and 20 chicks. We will be uploading pictures very soon so please be patient, bloggings all new to us haha
