Local landowner Clinton Devon Estates has chosen new tenants for 237-acre Dalditch Farm near Budleigh Salterton.
Meat farmer Ollie White has been running Farm2Fork from Somerset County Council-owned Greenway Farm near Ilminster for the past nine years.
His organic farm is home to 100% grass-fed cattle, sheep, and pasture-raised poultry.
He said: "When we launched Farm2Fork, our business plan was to farm regeneratively, in a way that benefited both animals and their natural environment, and that is what we've achieved.
"With 90 per cent of our orders online and for nationwide delivery, it makes it easier for us to relocate. We're looking forward to serving a new market in East Devon, as well as continuing to serve our loyal customers too."
Clare James, Head of Residential, Land and Tourism at Clinton Devon Estates said: "We are delighted to be welcoming Ollie and his family to Dalditch Farm. His approach to farming demonstrates our 2030 Strategy goal for land to be ecologically healthy and productive."
Mr White will remodel the dairy at Dalditch Farm to host freezers and a packing room before moving in with his partner Charlotte and 20-month-old daughter Poppy.
He also hopes to build a shop on site at a later date.
