We are breeding Traditional Hereford cattle, of which there are only a few hundred left in the country, and yes Herefords are available everywhere, but not the traditional ones. The lamb is from Oxford Down sheep of which there are only about 700 ewes left in UK. The pork is from British Lops which are the rarest native breed pig. The rare chickens we have are Marsh Daisy (rarest), Ixworth, Cornish Indian Game, and Scots Grey which provide some of the eggs for our shop. We also have crosses of Rhode Island Red, Black Rock, Amber Star and Bluebell which lay the majority of our organic eggs. Our meat birds are from a Sasso which is French breed, they are slow maturing and the flavour is amazing. THE FARM
