Produce

We have a selection of produce which is all 'home grown'. Our free range hens and ducks lay very delicious eggs, however eggs are only available subject to laying! Our hens are Light Sussex, Maran, Sussex Rock, Blue Maran and Heinz. Our two larger ducks are mostly Khaki Campbell, and the pretty little white ones are Call Ducks. Our cockerel, Courage Best, is of mixed parentage, but is in the style of an English Game Bird. Now you really can impress your friends with your country knowledge!!

Our delicious shetland lamb is for sale either as half a lamb (with a shetland recipe book) or individual cuts. Shetlands are quite small so they won't fill the freezer! The meat is dark and very flavoursome. It is sold as hoggett (one to two years old) or mutton, which is becoming very fashionable thanks to the advocacy of Prince Charles.
