At South Yeo Farm we believe in doing things the traditional way, with small fields, old vintage tractors, breeds that are just a little bit different and farming in tune with nature. We are passionate about rare breeds and always put the needs of our ani

We are Ian and Gillian Dixon, and live and work on the farm along with our ever growing menagerie. The farm has been in the Dixon family for 3 generations and our home, a traditional Devon longhouse, is believed to have been built in the 1600s; around the farmyard are several old cob barns that were once used for milking cows and storing grain.

In the 1950’s and 60’s the farm was run as a dairy unit by Ian’s father with brown & white Ayrshire cows producing milk collected in churns from the roadside. In the 1970’s dairying on our scale became unsustainable and the farm switched to raising sheep and beef. When Ian’s father gave up the animals in 1995 the land was let to a local dairy farmer until Ian returned in 2000 and we started to reclaim fields to keep rare breeds of sheep, pigs, cattle, ducks, geese and chicken and to actively manage the land to benefit wildlife and livestock alike. The farm is in Defra’s Environmental Stewardship scheme.

We currently have 100+ sheep, 300 or so chicken, a breeding group of pigs and their offspring, and a starter herd of shorthorn cattle.

What do we produce and sell?

Pedigree Balwen and Shropshire sheep are kept to produce registered breeding stock for onward sale, unregisterable animals for pretty lawn mowers, fattening, fresh or frozen lamb boxes, sheep skin rugs, wool for spinning, felting and knitted goods.

Registered pedigree Large Black pigs are raised for breeding stock or fattening animals for fresh pork and mouth watering crackling, bacon, gammon and delicious real meaty sausages using herbs and garlic from the garden.

Rare breeds of poultry are reared to sell for breeding, hatching eggs, and for their colourful free range eating eggs or simply hens for the garden. We add new breeds each year and currently have 27+ to choose from.

Smallholder Training courses have been run now for a number of years to help others gain the confidence to get started; topics range from starting with keeping chicken or sheep, through pond creation, to maintaining your tractor. Vouchers for training courses are available.

Fast growing willow for garden supports, living willow fences, arbours, wind breaks, children’s tunnels and wigwams; and brightly coloured willows for basketry.
