This farm is known for its variety of orchids, a collection that is over 20 years old. Since the sixties, Cecil Garton's family has owned the farm, currently managed by the granddaughter of Sir William Cooke, a famous orchid grower. Today this farm is dedicated to the preservation of many species of plants, many of them on the verge of extinction.
