A little about us

Blackhaugh Farm is a community managed 43 acre farm in Spittalfield, Perthshire, owned and managed by members of BFAG (Blackhaugh Farm Action Group) since 2015. 

So far, we've renovated a farm house, set up Taybank Growers Cooperative which produces vegetables, fruits and herbs, planted over 500 trees, converted shabby outbuildings into useful spaces and built a hut. The farm also hosts an apple tree nursery and provides grazing for sheep and cows.

It has been a busy few years. Next, we aim for Blackhaugh to provide affordable access to land and host many more small scale, ecologically sound, land based/farming enterprises. Find out more here.

We host work days at the farm on the second Saturday of most months. Join us if you can on Saturday 10 February, Saturday 10 March or Saturday 14 April 2018, or email us for the latest dates.
