Cornhill Farm

Cornhill Farm

We are a mixed farm near Camborne growing mainly wheat, barley and oats, to feed to our 14,000 free range egg laying hens. We pack and distribute our eggs locally, and can easily show the whole cycle from field to fork, as we process our corn in our feed mill and mix. We host over 20 school visits a year and are passionate about teaching our future consumers where their food comes from, and how we can farm and do this sustainably into the future. We are keen to show farming is the future for our planet, and also the varied careers that agriculture sustains. We adapt visits to suit the age groups, but rarely does a group get away without calling the piggy wiggggiiiiesss in for their breakfast!
We host a very successful Open Farm Sunday, with 1200 people coming to learn about farming in June 2024.
