Its been completely manic recently, since a newspaper article came out, people have not stopped calling and buying our fantastic beef which is excellent.
One of the Longhorns left us today to meet his maker....Something im not really getting used to.
The ferral calf that went missing for the whole winter is now back and looking very well indeed, makes me wonder what on earth it ate throughout a rough winter and spring!
We have just started using a new feed which working really well, its very important to get protein levels etc right and make sure your herd is as well as possible. We had a FABBL inspection on Monday and passed with flying colours which was a huge relief and made all the hard work worth it.
Im seriously looking forward to tasting the longhorns...I have it on very good authority that they are absolutely amazing.
Im stocking our local farm shop now www.peterleymanorfarm.co.uk which is working out very well, most people presumed the fine beef company came from there anyway, the beef is literally flying off the shelves.
I am now in partnership with a local farmer having set up a meeting with him yesterday, so I can now supply my lucky customers with fantastic local pork and lamb, couldn't be better!
I should be taking delivery of some White Park cattle in the next month or so, in time for Christmas so there will be a mixture of home grown and nearly home grown rare breeds for Christmas lunch. Get your orders in asap , no more boring turkey!
Anyway had better go and get my deliveries finished, will update soon
