The Heritage Meat Hut

The Heritage Meat Hut Based in the hamlet of Paythorne, on the outskirts of the Ribble Valley, we are a family run non-intensive farm; producing the finest quality of meats.

The Dexters (Beef)
Dexters are the smallest native breed of cattle to the British Isles, producing smaller family sized joints and cuts of beef with amazing flavour. Our cattle are grass fed all year round, grazing moorland in the summer months and having the finest quality hay during the winter months. This traditional diet provides a lean meat high in vitamins A & E and omega 3. The Sheep (Lamb)


The sheep flock consists of Ryelands (a traditional British sheep breed) and Ryeland cross breeds, which like the Dexterโ€™s thrive on the good quality grass diet with no need to use commercial feeds to fatten the lambs. Lambs are usually kept over the winter and butchered as Hoggetโ€™s, this slower grown non intensive approach provides a lot leaner lamb meat with similar health benefits to the beef. The Pigs (Pork)
Until recently we have bought in weaner piglets to grown on and finish ourselves. However we are now in the early stages of starting our own breeding programme with our Tamworth Gilts. This will mean we can produce pork which has been born and raised hear on the farm just like with the beef and lamb meats. Our pigs enjoy a portion of ration (feed) twice a day although their diet is enriched by adding seasonal fresh fruit or vegetables to their diet on a daily basis. This may be apples in the autumn, sprouts and carrots in the winter or berries in the summer. The Final Product
To keep the food miles as low as we can, our โ€˜finishedโ€™ livestock is taken direct to the slaughterhouse by ourselves. Once the carcasses are ready they are taken to Barkers Yorkshire Butchers in Skipton, where the meat is professionally prepared, vacuum packed and labelled. When ready of you the customers the meat is stored in our temperature controlled fridges and freezers, on the farm.

Today marks two years since we said goodbye to our beautiful son, Thomas, following a short stay in hospital after an accident on the farm.

Some of you may remember meeting Thomas at Bingley Market with his pie stall โ€” he definitely had a future in sales! ๐Ÿ˜‚

Thomas adored life on the farm and had all the makings of an excellent farmer. His kind, caring, and compassionate nature touched everyone who knew him.

The grief of losing Thomas hasn't become any smaller; we've simply learned how to carry it with us in everything we do. Some days are certainly more challenging than others, but his love, laughter, and memories remain with us every day.

Thomas Bull๏ฟฝForever 10 years old, forever loved, and forever shining brightly in our hearts โค๏ธ

Thank you to everyone who came along and supported the Meat Hut last weekend ๐Ÿ’š
Your continued support is what keeps the farm going and allows us to produce locally grown food for our community.
A special thank you to Helen and Kim for holding the fort while I've been out of action. Ladies, you are both amazing people โ€“ thank you so much xx
The infection in my leg, kindly gifted to me by the lovely George, finally seems to be improving thanks to the wonderful care of some fantastic nurses. Every day theyโ€™ve been coming to the house to administer intravenous antibiotics and check the wound.
It's definitely safe to say that armchair farming is not for me! And poor Chris deserves a medal for not only keeping the farm running but managing his own business too.
Anyway, thank you all again for your support. Iโ€™m really looking forward to seeing everyone this weekend.
Iโ€™ll be back in the trailer ๐Ÿ˜

Good morning ๐Ÿ‘‹
This weekend you can find the trailer at:

๐Ÿšœ Skipton Canal Basin RSH Artisan Market โ€“ Sunday, 9:00amโ€“3:30pm
There will be some new faces in the trailer this weekend, helping out while I recover. Itโ€™s been quite a week after an altercation with George, our breeding boar, last weekend!
George did absolutely nothing wrong, apart from not realising his own strength. Unfortunately, that resulted in his 2-inch fang finding its way into my leg ๐Ÿคฆโ€โ™€๏ธ. We've had several trips to Airedale Hospital this week, but thankfully Iโ€™m now on the mend and being very well looked after at home by the wonderful community nurses.
In the meantime, we need to keep the girls busy in the trailer this weekend, so please come along, say hello, and stock up on all your favourite delicious produce ๐Ÿ‘
Thank you for all the kind messages and supportโ€”itโ€™s very much appreciated.
Looking forward to seeing you all soon.

๐Ÿ‘ Orders Now Being Taken ๐Ÿ‘
1/2 Lamb Boxes โ€“ ยฃ130
Technically, these are now classed as 1/2 Hogget Boxes, as the lambs are over 12 months old. This means you'll get more meat, which is leaner and has a richer, deeper flavour. ๐Ÿ‘
Boxes will be ready for collection from Saturday 13th June.
To place an order, call or message Jo on 07883 021196.
Don't miss out โ€“ limited availability!

Good evening,
Cast your mind back to last weekend. You may remember that we were closed on Sunday because we were supposed to be moving house. Well... that didn't quite happen! Instead, I had an altercation with George, our breeding boar, which landed me in A&E with a rather impressive hole in my leg.
It's fair to say this week hasn't gone according to plan. I started it on crutches and have since developed cellulitis. Don't worry though โ€“ I won't bore you with too many graphic details!

We had promised many of you that our grass-fed lamb would be back in stock this weekend. Unfortunately, we've had to postpone that. With a little help from some good friends, and of course the amazing Chris, we're keeping everything crossed that the lamb will finally be back in stock next weekend, just in time for the Settle Artisan Market.

The good news is that the trailer will be open as planned this weekend:
๐ŸŒผ Saturday โ€“ Low Hall Farm Gate, Kettlewell, 10:30amโ€“4:30pm
๐ŸŒผ Sunday โ€“ Skipton Canal Basin, RSH Artisan Market

On board, we'll have:
๐Ÿฅฉ Grass-fed Dexter beef โ€“ fresh from the butcher
๐Ÿ– Tamworth pork โ€“ including plenty of our tasty sausages
๐Ÿฅ— Homemade coleslaw kits
๐Ÿง€ Cheeses
โž• And much more!

So please bear with me this weekend, but do come along and get stocked up.

๐ŸŒž Good Morning ๐ŸŒž
Fresh from our butcher this weekend, we have our delicious Tamworth pork available ๐Ÿ–
Why buy our pork?

๐Ÿฅฉ Better flavour & texture โ€“ Tamworth pork has more marbling and a richer taste than mass-produced pork.
๐Ÿท Higher welfare standards โ€“ The welfare of our animals is at the heart of our farm. Jo will happily tell you all about our pigs!
๐Ÿšœ Supporting a small farm โ€“ Weโ€™re proud to be an independent producer, with our pigs now born and raised right here in Kettlewell.
๐Ÿ“ Full traceability โ€“ Birth-to-fork traceability, not just a country of origin.
๐ŸŒ Low food miles โ€“ Speaks for itself really!

What weโ€™ll have available this weekend:
โ€ข Sausages โ€“ trays of 6 with a large variety of flavours
โ€ข Pork chops
โ€ข Belly pork strips
โ€ข Pork roasting joints โ€“ excellent value for money and perfect for pulled pork in this lovely weather
โ€ข Pork mince

Last weekend our homemade coleslaw kits were a huge hit, so theyโ€™ll be back again this Saturday ๐Ÿฅ—

๐Ÿ“ This Saturday Jo will be in the trailer at the gate to Low Hall Farm, Kettlewell
โฐ 10:30am โ€“ 4:00pm
๐Ÿšœ Just look for the yellow tractor!

Please note we are closed on Sunday as we are finishing moving house ๐Ÿ˜€
