Charlie farms around 100 acres with his father, David, at Great Wenham in Suffolk where they run a suckler herd of pedigree Longhorns and Northern Dairy Shorthorns as well as flocks of pedigree Jacobs, Wensleydales and Whitefaced Dartmoors.

Home grown cereals are fed in the beef finishing yards to locally sourced store cattle.  Charlie is a Harper Adams graduate and was a founder member of Hadleigh Young Farmers Club some years ago.
