Welcome back to the Cedarbarn, Chloe

We’re really pleased to welcome Mandy and Karl’s daughter, Chloe Turner back to the Cedarbarn team after she’s had time off with her young family. (You may have seen her adorable sons, Farmers Bert and Fred on our social feeds!)

Chloe has joined the horticulture team and will also be studying for the RHS Level 2 Certificate in the Principles of Plant Growth and Development at Askham Bryan college alongside her work. She is delighted to be back: “It’s great to be back working with the Cedarbarn team again. I’m looking forward to introducing a new cut flower garden and designing the outside space to complement the terrace and the new Dutch barn area.”

Dad, Karl is pleased to welcome another family member to the growing team: “The origins of Cedarbarn is a family farm that was bought by my great grandparents in 1919 and subsequently farmed by my grandad, then my dad. The horticulture team includes my sister and me, so it’s great to have Chloe working alongside us and Richard Hindby.”

The small team looks after eight acres of soft fruits, five acres of brassicas, three acres of root crops, six different varieties of strawberries, and an orchard boasting over 100 trees, so there’s plenty to keep them busy!
