Sophie Gregory

NFU Dairy Board member

Sophie is a first generation farmer and farms with her husband Tom on the Dorset Devon border.

Sophie and her partner run an organic dairy farm which includes arable and beef production of 1,400 acres in the Dorset countryside.

They have been organic for more than 9 years and their farm consists of 400 dairy cows.

Sophie is very focused on working with the community, this includes hosting school trips, farming discussion groups, and going into schools to teach children about dairy farming.

Sophie feels responsible to encourage people from non-agricultural backgrounds into the industry and employees, apprentices, and work experience students to learn more about farming.

She was awarded a Nuffield Farming Scholarship in 2023 to look at the future of organic farming. 

Sophie also sits on the Arla Board of Representatives.

She also won the Women in Dairy, 2021 Dairy Woman of the Year Award.
