HOOK&SON

THE FARM

FATHER AND SON PHIL AND STEVE HOOK FARM LONGLEYS FARM ORGANICALLY. THEY HAVE BEEN IN PARTNERSHIP TOGETHER AT LONGLEYS FARM SINCE 1991. FARMING IS IN THEIR BLOOD. THE HOOK FAMILY HAVE BEEN FARMING IN EAST SUSSEX FOR AT LEAST 250 YEARS.

HOOK&SON ACTIVELY FARM 180 ACRES JUST NORTH OF HAILSHAM AND ON THE VERY WESTERN EDGE OF THE PEVENSEY LEVELS, A SITE OF SPECIAL SCIENTIFIC INTEREST (S.S.S.I.) THE ORGANIC METHODS OF FARMING THAT HOOK&SON USE WORK IN HARMONY WITH MAINTAINING AND ENHANCING THIS IMPORTANT AND WONDERFUL LOCAL ECOLOGY. THE FARM IS TEEMING WITH A WIDE VARIETY OF FLORA AND FAUNA. A RECENT RSPB SPECIES SURVEY FOUND 45 DIFFERENT SPECIES OF NATIVE BIRDS, INCLUDING EIGHT SPECIES WHOSE STATUS IS CATEGORY RED (DECLINED BY MORE THAN 50% OVER THE LAST 25 YEARS), AND NINE SPECIES THAT HAVE DECLINED BY 25-49% OVER THE SAME PERIOD (CATEGORY AMBER).

PRESERVING THIS ORGANIC LAND IS CRITICAL. THIS IS WHY VIREFLOW HAS GONE OUT OF THEIR WAY TO PROVIDE MARKETING AT NO EXTRA COST TO HOOK&SON
