We have been farming at Hillstown Farm for 5 generations and take great pride in the quality animals we produce. In 2007 we decided to open a Farm Shop and subsequently totally changed our breeding policy to producing traditional free range animals which were slow growing and were free from antibiotics and growth promoters. We wanted to produce a high welfare animal and greatly reduce the numbers of animals we had on the farm to be animal and environmentally friendly. We use Angus and Shorthorn cattle simply because they have amazing marbled beef which is packed with flavour especially when we dry age it for 4 to 5 weeks. The pork is all rare breed and has a lovely covering with fat which adds so much flavour. Our lamb is lean as we've learned over the years that our customers don't like fat lambs, probably too much flavour. The chickens we sell are all free range simply because of welfare and with them growing longer an slower they are really succulent and flavoursome. We hope you will give us a try and please let us know what you think!!
