Good food at Goodwood
Tim Hassell wins Farmers Weekly Farm Manager of the Year Award
Goodwood Home Farm on the Goodwood Estate in West Sussex is delighted that Farm Manager Tim Hassell has won the acclaimed Farmers Weekly Farm Manager of the Year Award.
Tim was presented the award by comedian and actor Hugh Dennis, at an award ceremony on Thursday evening.
Having fought off tough competition from farm managers across the country, Tim, who was also recently awarded Sussex Farmer of the Year, is in charge of Goodwood’s Estate-based Home Farm.
Along with 1,375 ha of organic farmland, Tim and his team looks after 1,400 ewes, 50 Sussex sucklers, 45 breeding sows and a 200-cow herd of Dairy Shorthorns.
His aim is to produce top quality meat, milk and cheese as well as beer to sell on the Estate and beyond. If you haven’t eaten at Goodwood, get yourself along there, because the food is to die for.
