We work with farmers, growers & associated organisations to deliver soil centric support & advice

We are a small team of farming specialists with expertise in developing low-input, regenerative, organic and biological farming systems. Our work focuses on enhancing whole farm systems, helping you to achieve resilient, profitable, and ecologically balanced outcomes.

How can we help?

Adaptive Grazing

With extensive theoretical and hands-on practical experience in developing rotational, adaptive and regenerative grazing systems, we work with you to develop management plans which are specific to your farming operation. Having worked across multiple livestock enterprises and systems including sheep, beef and dairy, we can advise on the technical and practical aspects of developing productive and profitable grazing systems.

Farm Health Reports

Our comprehensive farm health reports offer whole-system assessments tailored to your operation. With in-depth analysis across the physical, biological and mineral aspects of your soil, matched with context-specific recommendations, we address the key limitations to your system’s health and provide a clear pathway to improvement, reducing your costs and enhancing the efficiency of your farming system.

Mentoring & Support

Having been there and done it ourselves, we support you as farmers and growers along your regenerative journey by acting as a sounding board, providing you with the confidence to step outside of your comfort zone and try new approaches. We offer discounts for new entrant farmers, charitable organisations and CSA’s so talk to us today.

Ongoing Monitoring

We support your regenerative journey with regular monitoring of critical ecological outcomes. By tracking tailored datasets specific to your system, we help ensure measurable progress toward your goals.

Regenerative Agronomy

With expertise in biological and regenerative farming systems, we offer tailored advice, from comprehensive soil test interpretations through to advice and support on reducing inputs and transitioning towards a more biological and regenerative approach.

Workshops & Events

We collaborate with farmer clusters, local farm networks, and regenerative businesses to deliver impactful workshops, events, webinars, and stakeholder engagement initiatives that inspire and educate.

About us

Earth Farmers is an agricultural advisory service developed to support farmers, growers and associated organisations transitioning towards low input, regenerative and biological systems of production. 

We work across the width and breadth of farming and growing systems, from market gardens and vineyards, through to large scale estates and everything in between.

  • AGRICULTURAL SYSTEMS & SOIL HEALTH

    With over 20 years of practical experience across diverse farming systems, Tim has developed deep expertise in regenerative and low-input agriculture, prioritising soil health and holistic land management.

    Initially educated in Viticulture and then Agricultural Management at Lincoln University, New Zealand, he later earned a Postgraduate Certificate in Organic Farming with Distinction from SRUC.

    Over the years Tim has learned from leading soil health and regenerative thought leaders, including Alan Savory, Dr. Christine Jones, Ian Mitchell-Innes, Darren J. Doherty and Nicole Masters, completing the first UK based CREATE program, a Masters level education program for advanced agro-ecological systems.

    His holistic approach allows him to assess operations from practical, financial, biological, and human perspectives, creating resilient, profitable and ecologically sound systems.

    A natural educator, Tim has a passion for guiding others toward truly regenerative agricultural practices, helping them build sustainable and thriving systems of production.

  • TECHNICAL MANAGER & BIOLOGICAL SYSTEMS

    Tom brings extensive expertise in regenerative agriculture and soil health, developed through his role as Farm Manager at Althorp Estate, where he led the 4,000-acre organic conversion, established an on-farm composting facility, and implemented large-scale regenerative practices.

    With a strong educational foundation, Tom is certified by the Soil Food Web Institute, Luebke Land Management, and the Integrity Soils/Nicole Masters CREATE program. His specialisation includes composting techniques (aerobic, anaerobic, and vermi-composting), soil biology, plant physiology, and agro-ecological systems.

    A systems thinker with a practical approach, Tom excels in visual soil and plant assessments, interpreting chemical analyses, and designing holistic land management strategies. His knowledge of Lean Management principles enables him to streamline processes and support sustainable transitions.

    Passionate about holistic, closed-loop agriculture, Tom collaborates with farmers to enhance land management independence and foster resilient agricultural ecosystems.

“…what really sets them apart is their understanding and appreciation of where those practices and their implications meet the commercial realities of modern farming. With their help, we’ve been able to put both our soil and our business on a journey of growth for the foreseeable future. ”

  • Regenerative agriculture focuses on improving soil health, biodiversity, and ecological balance whilst enhancing farm productivity. It involves techniques like cover cropping, minimising soil disturbance, incorporating livestock and biological amendments.

  • We offer a broad spectrum of support and advice covering Mentoring, Adaptive Grazing Systems, Farm Health Reports, Regenerative Agronomy, Ecological Monitoring, Composting Systems, Workshops & Events, and Farm & Landscape Design.

  • Our mentoring service is tailored to your needs. We provide ongoing support through on-site visits, online consultations, and practical advice to help you achieve your goals and farming objectives.

  • Our comprehensive Farm Health Reports assess soil, plant, animal and ecosystem health in order to provide you with a clear picture of your farm’s ecological condition. We provide practical and context specific management recommendations that improve resilience and productivity.

  • Not at all! We work with clients of all sizes, from small scale growers to large-scale farms and estates.

  • You can reach out to us via email, or message, WhatsApp or phone Tim directly on 0773 339 5383. Once we’ve made contact we’ll schedule an online call to discuss your needs and next steps.

  • Our standard rate is £65 per hour, with tailored packages available depending on the scope of work. Contact us for a detailed quote.

  • Gather any relevant information about your land, such as soil tests, maps, or current practices. Be ready to share your goals and challenges, and we’ll guide you from there.

  • Of course! Regenerative systems are all about the journey towards improving your farming system. We make no judgement on whether you manage a conventional, organic or even a biodynamic system. Our role is to help you to address your main imitations to success, drawing on our knowledge of regenerative and soil centric systems of production.

  • If soil is involved, we can help. We cover all areas of farming and growing, working with producers from livestock (including sheep, beef & dairy systems), arable systems, horticultural production, flower production and viticulture.
