For those who regularly buy Elmswood Farm’s produce we trust you’re impressed with the simple yet very neat, tidy and beautiful presentation – chances are it’s local Betty at the end of the line most days who double checks and fusses over your box before the lid is sealed. Thanks Betty!

Growing Biodynamic Garlic is a labour intensive business. Elmswood Farm is fortunate in having many contractors, Wwoofers and staff who have helped throughout the year.
Gavin Prescott managed Elmswood Farm for four years before sailing off on his 60 ft Catamaran “Chemistry” to the Solomon Islands, where he now runs a charter business.
He built his mast in what is now our garlic shed.
He’s been helping with this year’s harvest.
If you want to discover the Solomon Islands, Gavin’s your man.
