Ralph and Robbie Metson have been running the business together for 45 years now, and are proud of the fact they have never had a major falling out!

They were the first contractors in Essex to offer a contract direct drilling service, operating the very first production Bettinson direct drill and increasing to four such drills in the 1980's heyday.  

Still operating from the family farm base, the business continues to grow and thrive.

James Huxter, principal operator, joined the team over ten years ago bringing with him skilled operating abilities and a particular talent for modern computer controlled machinery.  Ralph's daughter Joanna Pike is now based in the farm office, assisted by Helen, our longstanding farm secretary, and Annette, who leads all the Gatekeeper recording. 

​Brian Hogg has been coming to us in the summer months for well over 30 years now, preferring Australia in the winter and threatening to retire there every year!  We also employ harvest students and look forward to welcoming Matt on board this year.
