History

J A Knight & Son Farmers Ltd is a successful family run business based near Walgrave, Northamptonshire.

Arnold Knight began as a cattle dealer in the early 1900’s.  After becoming successful in the 1920’s he was able to purchase land in a small settlement close to Walgrave known as Faxton.

Over the following generations J A Knight & Son have expanded over several neighbouring farms in and around Walgrave village and still holding ownership of the original land that was bought by Arnold.  The main farm enterprise gradually switched from livestock to crops due to the economic climate.  The business became a registered company in 1968. 

Currently on its fourth generation, Matthew, continues the vision of new opportunities for the farm business.  Livestock has recently been reintroduced with a herd of pedigree Aberdeen Angus.

J A Knight & Son is progressively evolving.
