Started in 2001 by Rona & Nevil Amiss and originally named Exmoor Organic, Higher Fingle Farm aims to
supply the highest quality Organic free-range Ducks, Geese, Chickens and
Turkeys to both the wholesale market and the discerning public. We also
keep Cattle, Sheep and Pigs.
In 2005 we moved from the centre of Exmoor National Park
(hence the name) to the less exposed Higher Fingle Farm on the edge of
Dartmoor. The move however has not affected the quality of our
livestock, all are kept to Soil Association Standards, meaning they are
free-range, fed organic food and kept longer.

Higher Fingle Farm is a 57-acre, tenanted, all grassland farm with
small fields and many wildlife rich hedges. It is in the rolling parish
of Drewsteighton at an altitude of around 200m.
Our on-site MHS Licensed Abattoir and cutting plant is fully licensed by the Soil
Association and can process all types of poultry. Having an abattoir on
the farm means that our produce is as fresh as possible with the best
flavour.
Our products are available nationally from high quality butchers, food shops, restaurants and Sainsbury's. They are also available direct from our on-line shop (Follow the links) or to collect from the farm
