We Are The Egg Machine🥚

The Wanstall family have lived at Bank Farm for over 100 years. A fairly traditional farming business, with cattle, free range egg laying hens and arable crops, we try where possible to work to regenerative farming practices meaning we try and build our soil organic matter levels to ensure we are part of the solution to reversing climate change and not part of the problem.

The Egg Machine was added to the business in 2019 to enable us to sell direct to local people. Not everything is grown or made by us, but most of the items that we don’t produce come from local farms and producers. I first spotted one of these machines in Holland where I met a farmer selling strawberries and Prosecco, he couldn’t wait to tell me more about the machine and for me to sample the produce, so much so that I had to stay the night as I couldn’t drive home! 

We take pride in the levels of biodiversity on the farm and continually strive to provide food and habitats for rare and endangered species. Recently we have conducted a major biodiversity study across the farm and are pleased to report that we have growing numbers of skylarks, yellow hammers, sparrows, and notably, 3 singing male nightingales and 4 pairs of Turtle Doves, two at-risk bird species. 🐤

If you keep an eye on our social media feeds I will keep you up-to-date of what’s happening at Bank Farm, whether its day to day farming, special offers in the machine or updates on the wildlife! 🌱

Bank Farm Black Label Chicken

Bank Farm Black Label Chicken has been selling out of the Egg Machine for a few years, but now we've branched out across Kent. 

Our birds are slow-grown and completely free-range, fed on a diet of UK-grown cereals and fly larvae reared on leftover food waste right here at Bank Farm.

We now supply a number of butchers and farm shops across Kent. Head to our website below to find your nearest stockist and read more about our birds.
