Farming Since 1956
The Drummond family have been farming in Herefordshire Since 1956. Eric Drummond senior, who had previously farmed in Scotland, came to The Homme in Ross-on-Wye with its 90 hectare’s of mixed farming which included potatoes, cereal crops and blackcurrants whilst also rearing sheep and cattle.
“Our goal is to provide the highest quality products for our customers and partners, in a sustainable way that delivers profitable returns for all parties”.
