Buckinghen Palace = more hens = more eggs
We’ve built the new hen house aka ‘Buckinghen Palace’. This week some new hens arrived on the farm. In the coming weeks we will have more eggs available. The eggs are put out in the vending shed first thing in the morning but they sell quickly!

LEAF Open Farm Sunday
Tomorrow is LEAF Open Farm Sunday on many farms in the UK including us at Stonehouse Milk aka Horsemarling Farm.

Please stick to paths in our fields
Please can people kindly keep to the paths in our fields. We have a crop growing in fields behind Maidenhill School and today a lady was photographed standing in middle of crop allowing her dogs to run through the crop terrifying the wild deer in the field. Thank you.
£406 raised for Leonard Stanley School
5p of every litre of milk sold goes to a local charity. From when we opened in February to the end of April the charity we (and you) supported was FOLSS (Friends of Leonard Stanley school). You raised £406! Thank you. The next charity that Stonehouse Milk will be supporting is Stonehouse Park Federation PTA. From the beginning of May to the end of July 5p of every litre sold will go to supporting this great cause.
We have eggs!
We now have our own farm fresh eggs daily. 24 of our girls are laying with more to follow. First thing every morning I will put out the eggs. £1.50 for half dozen, cash in honesty box on wall. Please return boxes or bring your own.
