The Garden

Loch Arthur, Camphill Community, The Garden

Our productive garden sits at the heart of our community. It comprises a field garden of four acres where we grow vegetables, large greenhouses, a soft fruit area and two small orchards.

One of these orchards as well as an ornamental flower garden are located within the beautiful, old, key-hole shaped walled garden.

 

All of our garden produce is grown to biodynamic Demeter standards.The fruit and vegetables will either find their way to the kitchens of the Loch Arthur houses or will be sold in the farm shop.

Most of our work takes place outdoors, but when it gets too wet or cold and windy, we also have the opportunity to work indoors in a beautiful purpose built workshop space, our greenhouses or in our large garden barn. In the winter months the garden team is busy with processing dried flowers and herbs as well as creating willow structures and preparing seeds for the next growing season.
