About Us

HELLO! WE ARE ANDREW AND JO MORRIS.

The Morris family has been farming for generations.

Working the land, in partnership with nature is all they know. Andrew and Jo , along with Iain Morris (Andrew’s dad) own and run Logie Farm in Newburgh Fife. Born and raised in Caithness, the families nordic roots and highland heritage is something they are all immensely proud of.
Jo is originally from a small mining town in Fife but moved north to Caithness many years ago following meeting Andrew through Young Farmers. They now are married with a young family.

The family share a passion for producing quality food, nature, regenerative farming practices and preservation of all that is good about British farming, past and present.
The Morris family relocated from Caithness to Logie Farm in 2018. This family farming enterprise, is run with a disciplined business ethic rooted in tradition but with a modern, forward-thinking approach to the future of agriculture.

Over the last seven years there has been a whirlwind of highs, lows, sweat, tears, mistakes and achievements. With every season that goes by, Andrew and Jo get to know the farm better and build a stronger partnership with the land. They all consider it an absolute privilege to farm at Logie.

The history of Logie Farm

SOME OF THE EXISTING FARM BUILDINGS WERE BUILT IN THE 1850S.

The way the land has been used at Logie Farm has changed over the years. Flax was once grown in the surrounding fields right up until the Second World War. It was an important crop in Britain at the time, used for making ropes, fabric and parachute harnesses.

The harvest was done by hand and the land was also used for seed potato production, malting barley and sugar beet. Around this time sugar beet was also grown and sent to the sugar factory in the nearby town of Cupar every year between 1925 and 1970. The railways played an important part in moving grain, sugar beet and potatoes to market, using either the Newburgh or Luthrie station (both of which are currently closed).

Logie Farm Today

FROM THE 1980S TO DATE LOGIE FARM HAS PREDOMINATELY GROWN CEREALS IN THE FORM OF WHEAT, OATS AND BARLEY.

Logie Farm also grows seed potatoes, broccoli and energy beet. Apart from growing food, these vegetables and beet are fantastic for the soil, providing a break crop and naturally putting essential minerals back into the soil. Logie Farm also has extensive meadow grassland which is elevated above the steading and arable land. Prior to the Morris families ownership, when the Arbuckle family farmed at Logie they also had an impressive fruit production business growing berries such as raspberries, brambles and strawberries.

Extending across the Logie Law and barony hill area, Logie’s grasslands are home to a large flock of commercial and pedigree sheep.
