Just off the Antrim coast, in a town called Ballycastle, lies Broughgammon Farm, 50 acres of carefully managed meadow, pastureland, gardens, and forest. It’s such an idyllic spot and an equally inspiring operation, so you might be surprised to learn that neither Charlie nor Becky Cole imagined that they’d be running their own regenerative farm one day. Motivated in part by the desire to find a market for male kid goats who are commonly disregarded as by-products of the dairy industry, the Coles have exceeded their original vision for their farm and now also raise pigs and rose veal; grow vegetables; and run a farm shop where they hold classes and host pop-up dinners.
In an era where family farms are going under all the time, the Coles have managed to envision and create something beautiful and thriving. On this episode, we talk to Becky and Charlie about bringing their vision of regenerative farming to life; how to make a living in line with your ethics; and the challenges of introducing customers to new tastes and flavors. We also discuss Becky’s book, the Garden Apothecary; developing specialty products; and the benefits of collaborating with other local small businesses.
