Hare Hatch Sheeplands farm is a friendly local business and is very important to the community of Wargrave, Twyford and the surrounding areas. As stated this land was derelict before and has been transformed into a wonderful place where you can get some food, buy some plants and browse through the shops selling wonderful unique goods. It will be such a shame if Sheeplands were to close and would be sorely missed by the community. Yes green belt land is very important and Sheeplands endeavour to encompass this within their business.

What is wrong with governments/local authorities these days. Reading through the previous planning applications it seems to me that WBC have in the past actually approved some of the changes.   It is more beneficial to allow this business to flourish and maintain the jobs already there than to close it down, put people on benefits and leave an unsightly weed covered area of land which no doubt it will revert to. Of course it could be that WBC want it on which to build some of their quota of new homes regardless of whether it is green belt or otherwise. It seems to me that 'greenbelt' is only 'greenbelt' if developers haven't yet offered enough money for it.  In my opinion the whole procedure should be looked at again by a different team of planners especially as they don't seem to be able to get their facts right,  documentation correct and are including planning for completely separate applications form other organizations nothing to do with Sheeplands.
