Lower Hewood Farm
Lower Hewood Farm, Hewood, Chard TA20 4NR
About us
We are an organic smallholding on the Dorset/Somerset border, growing food for our local community and running workshops and events around the subject of food and farming. Run by a farmer, a grower and an artist, we are exploring ecological farming, community-supported growing, and land-based creativity. We grow food, host events, and offer a grounded place to gather, learn, and connect.
The Food Trail has now finished.

Are you putting on a 30-Mile Feast or a tasting?
A 30-mile Feast, A tour
Join us on Saturday 19 July for a farm/garden tour and pop-up dinner, using seasonal ingredients direct from the fields of our regenerative organic farm. Our 30-mile feast will be served amongst the crops in our glasshouse and cooked by us, the farmer and the grower.
Led by seasoned grower and permaculturalist Claire Hannington-Williams, we embrace natural growing systems - with composts, mulches and fermented plant extracts feeding our soil and nurturing our plants on our single acre market garden plot.
Driven by lifelong organic farmer Tim Williams, our approach to farming has a strong focus on biological, and soil centric systems, working in harmony with the cycles of nature, and following an ecological mindset, drawing knowledge from the realms of permaculture, biodynamic and regenerative farming wisdom.
