A third-generation Norfolk farmer has revealed his latest diversification strategy and it will launch with two special festive events.
Jeremy Buxton, 47, runs Eves Hill Farm in Booton, near Reepham, with his wife Kathryn, 39.
It is a mixed arable and livestock farm, which includes Hereford cattle and Saddleback pigs, with a focus on regeneration and biodiversity.

The entrepreneurial couple is continually looking for ways to diversify the business, which has led to the launch of a glamping and camping site and a shop.
Mr Buxton said: "The farm shop opened a year ago and it has exceeded our expectations.
"The support from the community and suppliers has been fantastic - it is going from strength to strength."
They are now adding another string to their bow and have teamed up with Finley Robertson of Native2Norfolk, who runs markets across the county.
From January 2024 onwards, a monthly farmers' market will take place at Eves Hill Farm.
Ahead of this, there are two special festive events planned for its barn with free entry and parking.
The first is the Christmas Craft Fair on Sunday, November 19 and the second is the Christmas Market, which will be more food and drink-led, on Sunday, November 26, both from 10am to 4pm.

There will be around 40 stalls from local businesses at each event, alongside a Santa's grotto and a street food courtyard.
Mr Buxton added: "We have a great location in the countryside and we want to host a farmers' market offering local produce, where people can also come and see our animals.
"We are also hoping to have other events in our barn like antiques fairs."
The address is Eves Hill Farm, Reepham Road, Booton, NR10 4TD.
