About Burscombe Cliff Farm
Burscombe Cliff Farm is a long-established farm in the Weald of Kent, run by Hilary Jones, where farming is guided by care for the land, livestock, and the natural rhythms of the seasons.
The farm raises cattle, sheep and pigs in a low-intervention system that prioritises animal welfare, biodiversity, and healthy soils. Farming practices are rooted in agro-ecological principles, avoiding the routine use of artificial fertilisers and chemical weedkillers while working with natural processes to support the health of the farm ecosystem.
Production is small scale and seasonal, with meat supplied through local networks and markets, helping to maintain a close connection between the farm and the people it feeds.
Hilary is committed to continually developing sustainable farming practices, including the use of herbal and homeopathic approaches to livestock management, alongside methods that promote resilience and environmental stewardship.
As part of YILD's producer network, Burscombe Cliff Farm represents a thoughtful and practical approach to farming, where quality, care, and respect for the natural environment remain at the heart of everything produced.
