More about Hawkers Farm:
The farm adjoins Duncliffe Wood (Woodland Trust) and is 4 miles from Gillingham and Shaftesbury. New copses are growing, the orchard has been restored and hedgerows planted. The farmhouse, garden and outbuildings have been brought back to life by using traditional and renewable materials and ensuring that the 500 year old building would be as energy efficient as possible. The old milking parlour has been converted into an event barn which is the home of Hawkers Re-Creatives and Wear Me Out - special occasion outfits and hats to borrow, as well as Second to None - a collection of natural fibre second hand clothes for sale and mending and redesigning workshops.
