Description
Rickham Farm extends over 400 acres situated on the South Coast Path between Gara Rock and Limebury Point with views extending from Prawle Point, across to the harbour entrance, to Salcombe and up the estuary to Kingsbridge.
James manages the farm with his wife Ann, who is a volunteer watch keeper at NCI Prawle Point. James has a background of agricultural economics, and was previously a lecturer at Cirencester. James still involved with a Hampshire-based charity dedicated to helping people in southern England to achieve their potential in farming and rural enterprises. James and Ann bought Rickham Farm in 2009 and converted it to organic arable. The farm is currently making a transition away from arable to various forms of pasture and wild flowers under the government’s Sustainable Farming Incentive scheme to promote environmental protection and wildlife.
The tour will be a Land Rover safari with refreshments.
