Green Farm 

 

 

 

Green Farm, at its heart, is a home and a family run farm estate with a vision to be the country’s leading well-being retreat, where protecting and preserving nature, the landscape and the land for a sustainable future is of paramount importance.

Bought by MaryAnn and Martin Richmond-Coggan in September 2008, the estate has been lovingly and carefully restored to its current pristine condition, that is also now home to luxury accommodation, well-being retreats, boutique Spa and much more.

Little Pink Dog Collars

 

I am Julia, I organise and arrange the designs as well as the social media. If you chat to us it will be me chatting back. Steve uses his embroidery and sewing talents to create beautiful pieces for you to enjoy. We are also dog lovers and are owned by our Lurcher and two Greyhounds, so we understand the need for well made safe and reliable collars. 

The artwork for our own collars is unique and exclusive to us, so you won’t find these anywhere else. We have designs from very talented artists that we are proud to work with. We also have a range of designs that have been donated to raise funds so that we can support dog rescues and individuals at times of extra financial burden. We channel these funds through our own group Broocie’s Fundraising which can be viewed through the link.

Driven by Coffee

Having retired from my career in December 2023, it is now time for a change.

In 1987, I embarked on a total of 4 years studying Hotel and Catering Management. During this time, I worked in various catering establishments including ‘Little Chef’, Alton Towers, P&O, Beefeater and even Buckingham Palace. Ultimately though, my career took a very different path.

Now, after more than 30 years in my chosen career, I am returning to my catering roots and going it alone in the business of mobile coffee.

This is a business that has been planned for 6 or 7 years. The logo was created by my youngest daughter when she was 11 years old. I couldn’t do it better, so that is the one!

The original concept was to create a sustainable business using a converted horse trailer, sort of recycling an old trailer and saving the planet. In the end, I invested a very serviceable trailer which is nowhere near requiring recycling! However, there has been a lot to do to make her ready to serve customers.

With sustainability at the forefront, power comes from the sun. Large solar panels provide all the electrical needs and whilst propane is used to heat the coffee machine, it has levers powered by arm muscles to produce the pressure needed to make a perfect coffee.

Cups are all compostable, coffee is supplied from a fully ethical source, cakes are baked locally and single-use plastic is avoided wherever possible.

I am pleased to announce that I am now trading and have a number of significant events already booked for this year.
