Our herd of Old English Longhorns is certified 100% pasture-fed by Pasture for Life. They graze our permanent pastures all year round and never eat grain, cereals, soya or manufactured feed. In winter we bale-graze them on hay out in the fields.

Look for this mark to be sure your meat is 100% pasture-fed.
Our cattle live outdoors in family groups. Calves stay with their mothers, and we don't wean them early.
Only grass, herbs and wildflowers, fresh or conserved as hay. Never grain.
We manage our meadows for nesting birds, pollinators and wildflowers.
Our animals are grazed on pasture all year around. Our fields contain a wide variety of plants that provide a wide range of nutrients. Plants you can find in our fields include wildflowers, clovers, herbs and legumes. By feeding the animals pasture, it means they forage for crops their entire life, and lead a happier, healthier life because of it. The meat that is produced in this way is healthier and tastier for us to eat than from animals fed on grain.
Because pasture contains a wide range of plant life, it means that the biodiversity of the area is greatly improved. The farm is alive with insects, birds and mammals. This benefits the environment and produces far less carbon dioxide than farms that grow cereals to feed to their animals. Grassland captures and stores carbon so less is released into the air.
Animals kept outdoors in family groups raised entirely on pasture have very little stress, this has a direct impact on the health of the animal and the health of the meat. Cows have not evolved to eat grain, they are ruminants and need to eat forage to maintain healthy digestion.
YES! Meat from 100% pasture-fed animals has a lower total fat level than grain-fed animals, but more importantly lower saturated fat content. There are also higher levels of omega-3, vitamins and minerals. This meat is particularly rich in vitamins A and E, and minerals like calcium, magnesium and potassium.
