38 Dartmoor Society members were privileged to visit Moortown Farm on Wednesday 26th August. It has been farmed by the Jordan family for 100 years and we were all very warmly welcomed by John and Diane Jordan, their Son Robert and Grandchildren Charlotte and Jack.
It soon became clear that a high level of attention to detail in the feeding and rearing of the cattle, ponies and the sheep is required to produce the top quality pedigree stock achieved by this long standing Dartmoor family.
We were all delighted by the supreme condition of the Jordan’s pure breed Dartmoor ponies, Scottish Black Faced Ewes, North Country Cheviots, Grey Faced Sheep, Texel Sheep, South Devon Cattle and more.
This fabulous event was rounded off by an excellent tea jointly provided by John and Diane Jordan and the Dartmoor Society Executive Committee.
