Orrisdale Livestock Ltd is a large, family-run and award-winning beef and sheep farm in Ballasalla, Isle of Man.
It has grown its business steadily and reinvested its profits as appropriate to expand in a sustainable way.
It proudly competes in all local farming events and works to foster pride in the community’s ability to organise and run such events.
To further knowledge of farming, it holds an annual Open Farm Sunday event, hosts farm visits and takes animals to schools, allowing pupils a hands-on experience.
With the modernisation of farming, disused stone barns have been turned into holiday cottages, enhancing visitor accommodation. These use low voltage lighting and energy efficient appliances.
The farm recycles all appropriate material. It intends to establish small shelter areas and wildlife margins on its land.
