Fanblair

Fanblair Farm has a long history with generations of people having lived and worked the land.

The farm totals 407 acres with a mix of temporary grass, permanent pasture/rough grazing and a large area recently planted with young trees.
After trying different ways to operate the farm with an initial large flock of blackface sheep and a herd of commercial cattle it was decided to disperse all sheep and go for a smaller native cow better suited to the land here at Fanblair that could be outwintered in an area of woodland we leave ungrazed all summer.

After much discussion and looking at various options it was decided that the luing cow was the ideal fit for the farm and so the Fanblair herd of pedigree luing was established in 2018.
