Three accountants who only keep the books of farms. We come to you twice a year, we know what a single farm payment and a milk cheque look like, and nobody has to drive to town in lambing.
What we do

Every quarter
Send us a photo of the receipts book or leave the box by the back door. We file the return, tell you the figure a week before it is due, and flag the feed bill you forgot to claim.
Harvest and lambing
Pickers for six weeks, a shepherd for lambing, a student for the summer. We set them up, pay them on time and file what has to be filed — so you can hire on a Monday and pay on a Friday.
When the scheme opens
Hedges, ponds, soil cover, new equipment. We read the scheme rules so you do not have to, fill in the forms with you on the farm, and keep a copy of every map and photo the inspector might ask for.
After harvest
Stock, machinery, herd values and the overdraft, on one page you can show the bank. We sit down with you, go through it line by line, and tell you what the next year looks like if prices hold — and if they don't.
From £1,850 a year
For a family farm with one business and up to four staff. It includes:
What to have ready
Head of stock on the last day of the year, written down that day, not remembered in March.
Rent, scheme agreements and anything from the agency. Unopened is fine; we will open them.
What you bought, what you sold, and what is sitting in the hedge waiting for parts.
In any order. Sorting them is our job; losing them is the only thing that costs you.
What we never need to see: a spreadsheet you made to impress us. The diary on the kitchen wall and the bank statements tell us more.
