Winton Farm and Estate, just 30 minutes from Edinburgh, is looking for an enthusiastic and experienced Stockperson to help manage and develop an emerging cattle and sheep enterprise.
The in-hand mixed farming operation of almost 1,000 acres is currently undergoing organic conversion, with approximately 250 acres of mixed herbal leys and 750 acres of cereals. Current cattle numbers consist of 66 Luing females, running with Red Angus and Luing bulls which calve outdoors in April and May. In addition, there are 4 Highland heifers which graze around the castle.
The sheep flock was founded with a purchase of 65 Lleyn gimmers which lambed indoors in April this year. A further 250 acres of mixed grass leys are to be established next year and accommodate further expanding livestock numbers
