About Box Tree Farm
Nestled in the heart of Devon's lush countryside, Box Tree Farm stands as a testament to the harmonious balance between traditional farming and innovative, sustainable practices. Founded by Sarah and David Smith in February 2019, our farm is not just a business; it's a living, breathing entity that embodies the spirit of Devon's rich agricultural heritage and a forward-thinking approach to dairy and beef production.
Our Roots
Sarah and David, both hailing from farming backgrounds, embarked on their journey with a clear vision: to create a farm that not only produces high-quality dairy and beef but does so in a way that nourishes the land, the community, and the conscience of those who enjoy its bounty. Taking on Box Tree Farm, they expanded their dream into reality, incorporating beef, lamb, and a variety of vegetables into their offerings, alongside the farm's cornerstone of dairy production.
Our Philosophy: "Nourish Your Conscience"
At Box Tree Farm, we believe in the power of food to connect us—to the earth, to our community, and to future generations. Our philosophy, "Nourish Your Conscience," is a reflection of our commitment to ethical, sustainable farming practices that prioritize animal welfare, environmental stewardship, and the health of our planet. We've embraced circular farming methods, including pioneering methane capture technology and a stewardship scheme that ensures every aspect of our farm contributes positively to the environment.
Our Produce: From Our Fields to Your Fork
Our farm is a vibrant ecosystem producing milk, beef, lamb, eggs, and a selection of vegetables including leeks, carrots, and potatoes. Each product tells a story of care, innovation, and a deep respect for nature. By choosing Box Tree Farm, you're not just enjoying the rich, authentic flavors of Devon; you're supporting a vision for a sustainable future.
Our Commitment to Sustainability
We're proud to be at the forefront of sustainable farming in Devon. Our use of the New Holland T6 Methane Power LNG tractor and Bennamann's methane capture slurry lagoon exemplifies our innovative approach to reducing our carbon footprint. This technology not only powers our farm but also contributes to Cornwall's goal of becoming carbon neutral by 2030. It's a clear example of how we're turning the challenges of today into the solutions of tomorrow.
