FARMING HERITAGE
GREENDALE
The Carter family has been farming the East Devon countryside for more than five generations. Knowledge and experience have been handed down from father to son, continuing to inform our decisions every day as we farm into the 21st century. We take care to maintain a proper balance of animal welfare and successful productivity; to this end, while we invest in efficient, up-to-the-minute technology, we also ensure that we meet the standards required by the RSPCA Freedom Food and the Red Tractor Food Assurance animal welfare schemes. We believe animals must be treated with respect, and provide ours with a low-stress lifestyle and a natural diet.

We Like Them Apples - Introducing Four Elms Fruit Farm
Here at Greendale we love locally-grown produce, and Devon's apples are hard to beat! Ours are supplied by the fantastic Four Elms Fruit Farm, just over five miles from Greendale Farm Shop. From the crisp juicy Cox and the mellow Russet to the the crumble-friendly Bramley, Four Elms' apples are crisp and delicious - and their apple juices are pretty amazing, too!
Farming for the Future
From the start, the Greendale beef herd has been integral to the success of Greendale Farm Shop; we’ve gained a reputation for superb quality beef, thanks to the expertise of our farm management team and the skilled butchers at the Farm Shop.
Supporting the Farming Community
Greendale has chosen to support The Addington Fund, a farming charity in England and Wales that provides support to farmers and the rural community through various means, including disaster relief, housing, and grants. The Fund aims to help farmers stay in their chosen rural environments, and to support farming families and ensure the long-term sustainability of the countryside.

Green Power
We use manure from our cattle and arable crops from our farmland to produce our own renewable energy supply, via our anaerobic digestion (AD) plant, which powers the Farm Shop.
