Mount Farm is run by Roly Tavernor. This is a dairy farm of about 300 acres with 240 cows, each cow yielding 5,000 litres. No milk is produced during November and December when the cows are ‘dried off’. This follows the growth patterns of the grass. The cows are kept grazing for as long as possible each year between February and November. The cows are calved in February, March and April.
