Norman and Tricia met whilst they were students at
Leeds University. Studies completed, they came back
to Somerset to the family farm. They have been at
Hill Farm ever since, raising a family - now grown up
- and developing the farm and associated businesses.
They came to Traditional Chinese Medicine a few years
ago, and they have been chi-gung students of Tony's
ever since.
Farming at Hill Farm is based on principles of
environmental responsibility, and the land is farmed
in an organically sensitive way, using minimal
chemical input. Consequently there are bats, birds
and a multitude of wild life and plants. The food
given to guests is, as much as possible, home or
locally produced and sourced. The water is Hill Farm
spring water, the milk comes from the dairy herd, and
Tricia makes the yoghurt and bread.
