We are an established Norfolk farming family, who rear our own livestock to a high specification, and we farm in the area between North Walsham and Aylsham.
We mainly rear young heifer cattle for slaughter, as we believe the tenderness is best in these carcases. The cattle are a mix between continental crosses such as Belgium Blue, or Charolais, and some more British Breeds such as Hereford and Aberdeen Angus.
We always use local Lamb. We purchase our lambs from local farms via Blakes abattoir near Norwich, we usually know the farmers of these lambs in person, and have visited many.
We only use gilt pigs from Tim Allen’s outdoor reared herd at South Creake (just North of Fakenham) for our pork requirements, the females never suffer from the dreaded boar taint. Tim’s pigs are often quoted as being the best around.
The family runs four High Street shops, and two of our own cutting rooms providing the entire fresh meat requirement including hand-made sausages and burgers. We are proud of the fact that our meats have a very low “Food Mileage”. The abattoir we use is located in Felthorpe, and we process our home produced meats under all the modern controls a licensed premises now has to have, the carcasses are then hung until ready to be cut.
