Passion for Farming

We're passionate about sourcing as locally as possible, provided the quality meets our exacting standards - and fortunately, the Keighley area and its surrounding countryside offer some truly exceptional agricultural produce. While Keighley might not always receive the recognition it deserves, the agricultural heritage of this region is genuinely outstanding. The rolling hills and fertile valleys around our town are home to dedicated farmers who have been perfecting their craft for generations, producing some of the finest meat and produce in Yorkshire.

From the lush pastures that nurture prize-winning livestock to the traditional farming methods that have been passed down through families, this area represents the very best of British agriculture. We're proud to support these local producers and bring their exceptional quality directly to our customers. When you choose our products, you're not just getting superior taste and quality - you're supporting a thriving local farming community that truly deserves celebration.

P.S. My dog Tess is absolutely horrified that we've downed tools just for a photo op - her dedication to the sheep never wavers!
