Jade Farms is a long-established family run farming partnership in East Kent growing a range of arable crops, mainly wheat, barley, peas, beans and oilseed rape. Potatoes, cauliflowers, cabbages, leeks, linseed and onions have also been a part of the rotation.
Farming from sea level up to 450ft, more or less the highest point in Kent, soil types range from fine loams through clay marshland up to some hilly clay and flint banks. Woodland provides spectacular displays of bluebells in April/May. A range of wild woodland flowers flourish throughout the year.
