Glenkilrie was one of our first four Climate Change Focus Farms and participated in the project from 2010 to 2013.
Glenkilrie is owned by David Houstoun and covers some 1000 ha at the bottom of Glenshee in Perthshire.
It is an upland beef and sheep farm, having 140 suckler cows and 1000 ewes, which are split into two flocks. David grows some forage rape plus grass, which is then ensiled or made into big bales. In addition to the farm business, Glenkilrie is also the location of a well established bed and breakfast business.
