Meet the farmers

Willie, Graham and Gavin McEwan

From our farm in North-East Angus we have been supplying potatoes for Bartlett's for over 20 years. We provide the company with 9 different varieties of potato including Maris Piper, Nicola, Osprey and of course Rooster. In addition to potatoes we grow winter wheat for feeding livestock, spring barley for malting, oil seed rape for vegetable oil and we rear beef cattle too.

As it is becoming increasingly important to conserve and protect the environment the need for farmers to utilise excess land is also significant. Therefore we have built a pond to try and encourage trout, ducks, as well as other forms of wildlife in our area. Additionally we have planted wildflower strips within our field to try to encourage the insect population. Back to Farmers
