🐐😂 MUM OF THE YEAR AWARD GOES TO… JAZ!

It’s dinner time at Poppies Farm, the herd is heading in and everyone knows exactly where they’re going.

Everyone except Jaz. 🫣

She’s stopped in her tracks because she’s lost something VERY important…

Her kid. Crumble. 😭

While the rest of the herd are rushing off for dinner, Jaz is looking at us as if to say, “Excuse me… have you seen my child?!”

So we went back to the footage to investigate…

AND THERE HE IS. 🤣

Crumble had run straight past her, and Jaz completely missed him. Meanwhile, he was safely inside all along!

Honestly, you couldn’t make it up. 😂🐐

Did you spot Crumble on the first watch? 👀👇

LET’S TALK CHICKENS… 🐔

We’ve had a few people ask about the price of our chickens, £10 per kg, and some have suggested that this might be a little more than they’d expect to pay.

So, we thought we’d explain why. 👇

The chickens we rear here at Poppies are:

🐔 Slower growing - around 13 weeks, compared with around 6 weeks for conventional supermarket chickens.

🌿 Pasture reared - our birds have access to the outdoors rather than being raised entirely inside.

🐔 Small scale - our batches are around 55 birds, rather than the thousands or tens of thousands you can see in large-scale production.

We’re not trying to compete with a £3.99 supermarket chicken… because what we’re doing is very different.

You know where your chicken has come from, how it has been reared and the standards we’ve chosen to work to. 💚

There are, of course, higher-welfare chicken options available in supermarkets too, but they come at a higher price for a reason.

So yes, our chickens cost more.

But when you consider the time, space, slower growth and small scale approach that goes into raising them, perhaps £10 per kg isn’t quite as expensive as it first seems. 🐔🌿

Today is World Farm Animal Day! 🐷🐮🐔

A little reminder to celebrate the animals who make farm life what it is… from our cows and pigs to the chickens, geese and everyone in between. 💚

At Poppies Farm, our animals are at the heart of what we do. They’re part of our working farm, our alternative provision and so many of the experiences we’re lucky enough to share with the people who visit us.

Every day is a reminder that looking after animals is about more than simply feeding and caring for them. It’s about understanding their individual personalities, providing the right environment and treating them with the care and respect they deserve.

So today, we’re giving an extra special shoutout to the Poppies gang. ❤️🐄🐖🐓

Happy World Farm Animal Day! 🌱

We’re not quite ready to give up the tongs yet! 🔥

And the weather seems to be agreeing with us… sunshine is still expected this weekend, so we’re taking that as our cue to keep the BBQ going. ☀️

Nothing beats a proper BBQ… sizzling sausages, juicy burgers and good food enjoyed outside while the weather lets us.

Whether you’re feeding the family, having friends over or simply making the most of the sunshine, we’ve got plenty to choose from at Poppies Farm.

Take a look at our selection on the website and order today… then all that’s left to do is fire up the BBQ. 🔥

If you remember the very hot summer we had, the general rule at Poppies Farm:

Do as little as possible, for as long as possible. ☀️😂

Which meant some jobs… naturally… went to the back of the queue.

Including this one. 💩

So, we’ve noticed several of these little 💩 sites popping up around the farm lately…

The good news? It’s cooler now, so we can finally get stuck into some of those jobs we’ve been putting off.

The bad news?

Apparently everyone is suddenly VERY busy.
Strangely, everyone also has a list of other things they absolutely must do first. 👀

We’ll get to it eventually…

Probably. 🙃
