Organic Food and Farm events - lots to do and see

View of the farm from the hillWe’re passionate about organic food and farming and with Whitmuir's year-round programme of Food and Farm events (see left) and our Farm Walks  there's always something new to see, do and learn on the farm.

We hope you’ll enjoy our state of the art green building too  with its low carbon concrete, local larch and sheeps wool insulation to make it climate-friendly.  Photovoltaic panels, wind turbine and ground source heat pump combine to make the whole project carbon-positive. Sounds worthy, looks beautiful.

There are lots of ways to keep up to date with what's happening at Whitmuir the Organic Place.

Whitmuir Farm Walks

Visit the farmAs a Soil Association open farm we positively encourage visitors to walk up through the farm to enjoy the spectacular views and changing seasons.

Over the next few months we will be improving the farm signage to make this more visitor friendly.  Farm staff will accompany people when they can, but this is not always possible.

A guided walk usually takes  place each Saturday at 1pm, so if you want to be sure of a tour, please come then.  This is a good opportunity to learn more about how the farm works and ask questions. Wellies recommended.

We enjoy hosting visits from schools, agricultural students and community groups and are happy to come and talk to your group about local and organic food.  A guided walk for your group can be organised by arrangement.  Please contact us to arrange your visit.

For keen walkers, there is a route through the farm and Grassfield Forest over to Eddleston and Peebles.

As we are a fully organic working farm with livestock (cows, sheep, pigs, hens and turkeys) any visiting dogs must be kept on the main path on short leads and they must be regularly wormed (within 3 months of visit).
