Christmas Beef orders are coming in fast, order soon to avoid disappointment.
We do also have a small quantity of frozen beef available now. We are now taking orders for Dexter Beef in time for Christmas, payment can be made by cheque or cash.
We now also accept credit/debit cards via paypal (account not needed). Click here to visit our store via the beef availability page. Our three ewes went to visit a charolais ram last week. I have heard that lambing will start from 12th April next year, this will be followed by calving in May.
We are planning to have lamb available from the end of next year.  With big storms forecast for overnight we spent the day moving animals. The bull went home giving the opportunity to move all of our cows back into one herd. The stables were cleared allowing the horses to come in at night.
In the middle of these chores we collected our first sheep, 3 herdwick ewes. We now have a recipe page on our website giving ideas of dishes to cook using our produce. Check it out today for a slow cook winter warming dish. Link to recipe page
We have frozen Dexter Beef including steak mince and burgers available check out our Beef Availability page for details. This is a chance to try our beef without the commitment of a box of mixed cuts.
Fresh beef will be available again in December. We've had a busy day today.
We started with the first stage of our annual TB test, all of the cattle behaved allowing the vet to work through swiftly. Our two heifer calves were also dehorned. This was followed by a meeting with the butcher, cutting details for our latest Dexter Beef were finalised and collection was arranged for Friday 12th October. We also arranged for the first of our Dexter Beef Burgers to be produced details can be found on our Beef Availability Page. We are now taking orders for Dexter Beef available in October.
