WELLINGTON WINDOW

TellusaboutyourroleonThe WellingtonEstate?

My role is very varied, working across different parts of the Estate. I joined WellingtonFarm Shoparound 7 yearsago. I lovethe rural element ofmy jobbecause it varies depending on theseason. In the summer, it’s all abouttending to plants thatI grow for WellingtonFarm Shop, watering them and managing the compostheaps.

During thewinter season, I assistin setting up special lunches for guests at the Stratfield SayeShoot, using foodprovided byWellington Farm Shop.Thistakes place from theend of September to theend of January.

In thesummer, you can find me helping out in thecafé at Stratfield Saye House’s Visitor Centre when the private home of theDukeand Duchessisopen fortours. WhatdoesatypicalShootdaylook

Theshoot days at the Old Museum,within the private grounds of Stratfield Saye House, are always fun. Over the years I have gotten to know familiar faces who are regulars on theshoots. I start a shoot dayby standing quietlybehind thedoor of the old joining workshop (nownamed the Old Museum) I have learned, from experience, toopen the doors very slowly dueto encounteringuninvited guests including squirrels bouncing off the walls andbirdsflying around!

I helpprepare thetable with seasonal foliage and take pride that it never looks the same. The ambience is set with candles and the fires are litto warm guests aftera morning out on the Estate. Wethen serve a lunch of Cumberland sausages, cheesy mash andbutter leeks, before dessert of lemon meringue and cream.

Canyoutellusmoreaboutthe gardeningelementofyourjob?

When I’m working, I take the old vegetables from theshopandputthem on one of5 compost heaps, which after6 months of turning over get used in our gardens I’ve had great success with potatoes and gourdsthis year, which I’ve passed on totheFarm Shop tobesold.

I’ve also grown lots of chardbecause it grows back easilywhen cut In addition, I’veputa varietyof seedsandbulbsinside theGardening Barn whichalsogetsold in theFarm Shop.

Typically,our hyacinths are frozen and set off in November to have them flowerby Christmas. Ittricksthem into thinking it’s growing season As for the unsoldbulbs, I collect them in apaperbag to dry and then storethem I’ve recentlyfound them all sprouting!

Didyouknow?

Ollie, the forester on The Wellington Estate, collected Willow cuttings and conkers I put them in thistime last yearand mostof theSaplings were6 inches high whenhecollected them to plant back on the Estate grounds. Top tip, don’t bury conkers in thesoil as theydon’tgrow,placethem ontop!

Tellusaboutthedifferentanimals atWellingtonFarmShop?

We have Poppy and Luna, ourresident cats. Poppy originally came from Battersea Dogs Home and was initially feral, butshe’s become quite friendly over the years Afterbeing adopted when she was2 years old, she’s now 12 years old. Now,when I’m pottingup,she’ll comeand siton mylap or neverbetoofar fromme.

Luna, on the other hand, wandered in from down the roadand gave birth toa litter of 6 kittens in ourbarn. Despite being collectedand taken back home with her kittens, she decided to come back and makeWellington Farm Shop her homewherewenowlook after her.

We also a lovely highland cow whichI have been tending to forabout 2 anda halfyears Becausesherecognisesme and myvoiceIcanhand-feed her to check up onher coat and general health I haveto keepabeady eye onherandreport back to the Farm Managerabout how they are getting on.

Noday isever thesame. It makes working on the Estate a special placeto work, that’sfor sure.
