2025 is going to be a year of big changes for us here, and that starts with a change of name. You'll notice we are changing our social media accounts and over the next few months we will be be updating all of our branding to reflect this change.
Why change? Well, lots of reasons. Colletts Farm is a name we've used for over 10 years now but it doesn't convey the fact that this is our business. Sophie and I have built this, not without help, but for the most part it is just the two of us. We are not a big, corporate business. If you phone or email, it is one of us who replies. It's usually one of us on the farm when you visit us here, or one of us at the farmers markets we attend, and we are very proud of what we have achieved.
Secondly, Colletts Farm is the name of the farm we are based on. There is no Collette here, as many people think Sophie is called, and Colletts is not our surname either. We have been offered an incredible opportunity to move our business just a few miles up the road to another farm and it would be wrong to take the name with us.
Hang on, we are moving? Yes, although not just yet. We have been renting the farm here for a long time, and have achieved so much. But we realise that we are out growing it, not in terms of land or size but in other ways. We have so much we still want to do and we need to move to achieve that. Just to clear up the inevitable rumours, this has been 100% our decision, we have not been forced to leave. The owners of Colletts Farm know of our plans and we have been wished well by them. It doesn't mean we will be giving up the farm here just yet either, we have obligations under our tenancy to continue here for sometime yet.
For the time being there will be no difference and you'll still be able to come to the farm as usual. Our plans are to continue as we have here, just at a different location and don't worry, that includes raw milk!
There is much to be done at our new farm and we hope that there will be opportunities for anyone who wants to, to be able to come and give a hand. More details will follow in due course. But for now, just keep coming, buying and enjoying our produce, and supporting Tim & Sophie's Farm!
Tim and Sophie.
