Farmers are individuals - used to being on their own.
We believe we have evolved a way of doing that. The idea of selling meat directly to the public came as the result of a programme on the radio. A lady, who was not fussy about 'Organic', wanted to know where her meat came from and that it had had a reasonable life. Our cattle are single suckled and the mothers are mostly home bred and have a good supply of milk. The calves are weaned at nine months to let the mother rest and regain weight before calving again.
