Andy & Karin Shaw welcome you to Dragon Willows Farm

Dragon Willows Farm is situated beneath glastonbury Tor, on the Somerset levels. Our farm is a smallholding and much more, it's a complete way of life. The farm consists of 8 acres of grassland farm buildings and a small family home. We have created an eco, animal, and food friendly, self-sustaining smallholding selling a range of local fresh foods.
Our purpose is to provide ourselves with as much of our own food as we can and sell the rest, either fresh or in the form of home made products, directly from farm and at local farmers markets.
We aim to achieve this by wasting nothing, and ensuring that our produce is grown using traditional organic, natural methods, and
while the major proportion of our livestock is being raised for meat, we do ensure that they have a happy and fulfilled existence. 
We have livestock consisting of Ermintrude, The farm's diary cow and her annual calf, 2 Tamworth pigs, chickens, geese, ducks and quail. Ermintrude, provides us with fresh milk daily, which is used to churn our own homemade butter and make soft cheeses,
yoghurt, cream and clotted cream.
Her calf, when grown will provide us with fresh beef.
The pigs likewise will provide us with fresh pork, our own ham, bacon, sausages and black pudding. We intend to
live by the old addage that, 'the only thing you can't use from a pig is the oink'.
The chickens, ducks and geese are free range and free to wander all over the farm.
They provide us with eggs and meat through the year.
Visit our fresh farm foods section for a selection of fine organically produced products.
We believe that if we work with nature and our environment, nature and the environment will work for us.
That's not to say that nature doesn't have a nasty streak which unleashes flood, drought and snow at the most inconvenient times, but because we are small and farm traditionally, we have the ability, to adapt to most things.
The principle we have put into practice is that, as far as is possible, we take nothing out that we can't put back. For further information please view our environmental practises & principles.
