Sowing the Seeds of Sustainability: Splatt Farm Gardens' Green Revolution

Updated: Jun 19


In the tranquil heart of rural Somerset, where the rolling hills paint an idyllic landscape, a quiet revolution is underway. Meet Splatt Farm Gardens, a place where sustainability isn't just a buzzword—it's a way of life. As we embark on this journey in 2020, we invite you to join us in sowing the seeds of a greener, more sustainable future.


The Quest for Sustainability


At Splatt Farm Gardens, sustainability is our guiding star. We believe in nurturing the earth, fostering biodiversity, and treading lightly upon our beautiful planet. It's a journey that begins with the soil beneath our feet, as we set out to regenerate and breathe life into the land.


The Secret Seedling Bombing


In May, before we had officially settled in, we embarked on a covert mission—the "seedling bombing." Armed with seedlings and a vision for a vibrant vegetable garden, we couldn't wait to get our hands dirty. With the new beds in place, we surreptitiously planted the first seeds of change. It was our little secret, a clandestine act of devotion to the land we now call home.


A Growing Bounty


Today, our efforts are beginning to bear fruit, quite literally. Our vegetable garden is teeming with life, as we've carefully nurtured a diverse array of crops. Beets, onions, kale, cabbages, Brussels sprouts, courgettes, corn, beans, and an assortment of squashes now thrive under the Somerset sun. But this is just the beginning.


A Vision for Tomorrow


Our vision extends far beyond the vegetable patch. In the immediate future, we'll be constructing sheds, compost bins, irrigation systems, polytunnels, and a myriad of other exciting projects. These endeavors will not only support the growth of our garden but also contribute to our mission of sustainability. They are the building blocks of a greener, more eco-conscious future.


Join Us in the Journey


We believe in the power of community and shared responsibility. That's why we invite you to join us in our quest for sustainability. Whether you're a seasoned gardener or a novice with a green thumb, there's a place for you here. Come lend a hand, get your hands dirty, and watch the fruits of your labor flourish.


A Cheeky Camping Discount


As a token of our gratitude, we offer a cheeky camping discount to those who choose to be part of this journey. It's a little something to sweeten the deal, a way to say thank you for being a part of our growing community.


Looking Ahead


2020 marks the beginning of our sustainability journey, but it certainly won't be the end. At Splatt Farm Gardens, we're committed to nurturing the land, fostering biodiversity, and promoting sustainable practices. We're excited about what the future holds, and we can't wait to see our garden grow and flourish.

In 2020, Splatt Farm Gardens embarked on its journey toward sustainability, regenerating the soil and nurturing a diverse vegetable garden. The vision for a greener, more eco-conscious future was just beginning to take root, and the call to join this mission was extended to all who shared a passion for sustainability and the beauty of nurturing the land.
