About our farm:

Welcome to Kersheugh, our family-run farm nestled in the beautiful Scottish Borders! We’re the Jackson family—Fenwick, Jasmine, and our children—and we can’t wait to share our way of life with you.

Fenwick has farmed here since he was a child—it’s in his blood and it's our livelihood & greatest passion. I (Jasmine) joined him on the farm before we were married, and together, we’ve built a life rooted in nature, hard work, and family.

We created Jacksons at Jedburgh to open our gates and welcome you into our world. Whether you're here to meet our animals, experience the rhythm of farm life, or simply enjoy the peace of the countryside, we promise a visit filled with hands-on fun, fresh air, and unforgettable memories.

We can’t wait to welcome you—see you on the farm!

W hope you LOVE your visit to the farm!

If you are pregnant or trying to get pregnant it is recommended that you do NOT take part in lamb feeding at the farm.

Please note:

If the rearing of farm animals for food or breeding is something you find unacceptable, regardless of how ethically and humanely it may be practiced, a farm visit is unlikely to be the right choice for you. That's okay.
