The Grower

Dorothy Hollamby is a farmer’s wife and has always been involved in the family hop farm.

In 1973 Dorothy started up her own small scale farming enterprise which has evolved over the years.

Dorothy’s hobbies and interests have always been centred around her family, home & the countryside. She enjoys photography, sewing and cooking; all of which she will share snippets of through the news section of this website.
