As this season’s lambs are prepared for the table, it feels like a good time to look back at an important part of the New Farm Meats story.

For Daisy and Chris, producing good meat has never started at the butcher’s block. It begins out in the fields, with the breeding, feeding and daily care of the animals, knowing the stock and making sure their welfare comes first throughout their lives.

But the care doesn’t stop at the farm gate.

Butchery is another important part of that journey. Understanding the carcass, making the right cuts and using as much of the animal as possible takes knowledge and skill. It is part of respecting the animal and producing the quality of meat New Farm Meats has always wanted to put on its customers’ tables.

That is what field to fork really means to us. Knowing where your food has come from, how the animal was raised and the work that has gone into preparing it.

A lot happens before a cut of lamb reaches your plate.

Ladybird, one of the firm favourites at New Farm, has delivered a healthy little heifer to complete this year’s calving.

Ladybird has been a great mother over the years, and this heifer will continue the Shorthorn line on the farm.

Shorthorns are well known for being good mothers and having a naturally quiet temperament, producing beef with good natural marbling, tenderness and flavour. All qualities Daisy looks for when breeding.

That now means every calf expected this year has arrived safely.

Some arrived quietly and without fuss. Others decided on a rather more dramatic entrance and needed a little extra care along the way.

But that’s farming. No two days, cows or calvings are ever quite the same. Daisy can prepare as much as possible, but she also has to be ready to deal with the unexpected when it comes.

A great way to finish the calving season, with another Shorthorn heifer for the future.

One of the special ones.

Plum has always been one of Daisy’s favourite cows, so there was something particularly special about this arrival.

In the early hours this week, Plum gave birth to a Belted Galloway-cross calf, with both mother and calf doing well.

Calving doesn’t keep office hours. Late-night and early-morning checks are all part of making sure Daisy is there when she’s needed, with the safe arrival of the calf and the welfare of the mother always the priority.

And when daylight comes, the rest of the farm still needs her. The land needs tending, the herd needs checking and another farming day begins.

It’s all part of knowing your animals, being there when it matters and putting their welfare first.

Another safe delivery for the 2026 herd.

Hollie, one of New Farm’s Herefords, has delivered a healthy Shorthorn-cross heifer. Both mother and calf are settled and doing well.

Successful calving starts months before the calf arrives, with careful breeding, good nutrition, maintaining the cow’s condition and knowing the herd well enough to spot when something isn’t right.

These standards are non-negotiable for Daisy, and the condition of Hollie and her calf reflects the care and knowledge behind every animal at New Farm.

Calving also means the working day doesn’t always end when the light goes. Daisy continues the late-night checks, keeping a close eye on the remaining expectant cows.

And this little heifer seems to have arrived with something extra. Look closely and tell us what you see?

This week, I’ve been back in the tractor, muck spreading and preparing the land for next year’s crops.

It might not be the most glamorous job, but it’s an important one.

The muck from our livestock goes back onto the land, returning valuable nutrients and organic matter to the soil. Nothing goes to waste. It goes back into the farm.

Those nutrients help grow the crops that will feed our animals completing a cycle that happens year after year.

For me, producing quality meat starts long before it reaches the butcher’s block. It starts with the soil, the crops we grow and the way we care for our livestock.

Next year’s harvest starts here.

And for this weekend’s feast, come and see me at the Gate this Saturday and find the perfect cuts for your BBQ.

If you've followed New Farm Meats for a while, you may already know Plum. Around the farm, she's known by name, not number.

She's one of Daisy's favourite Stabilizers, full of character and never far from where the action is. Plum is due to calf, marking the beginning of another generation carefully bred here at New Farm.

Every calving season brings a mixture of excitement and responsibility. Although Daisy has done this many times before, every cow is different, and every new arrival is another reminder of the care, knowledge and commitment that goes into rearing livestock well.

For Daisy, good farming has always started with putting the animals first. Their welfare, from the day they're born, is the foundation of the quality meat that eventually reaches your table.

Yesterday, the bale counter reached 3,014.

Behind that number are 5am starts, working through until dusk.

Unlike hay, which is made to feed livestock, straw is collected after the grain has been harvested and becomes an essential part of caring for the farm's animals through winter. It provides bedding that helps keep them warm during the colder months.

Daisy believes good bedding is more than just comfort. It's a vital part of animal welfare, helping livestock stay healthy throughout the winter. That same care and attention is reflected in the quality of every cut of New Farm Meats, because healthy, well-cared-for animals are the foundation of good farming.

Because great food starts long before it reaches your table.

The first Belted Galloway calves of 2026 have started to arrive.

Born into the summer sunshine, they mark the start of another calving season here at New Farm.

For some of our young cows, it's their first time becoming mothers. There's plenty to learn, but instinct soon takes over as they settle into looking after their calves.

While the fields are busy with haymaking, these quieter moments remind us what all the hard work is for.

Belted Galloways are a traditional native breed, known for producing naturally well-marbled beef with exceptional flavour. They mature more slowly than commercial breeds, but that slower growth helps develop the quality that makes the beef so highly regarded.

Every new calf is another generation of the herd Daisy has carefully bred over the years.

As the heatwave continues, the pigs are making the most of fresh water on tap and a chance to cool down.

While the sunshine is welcomed, warm weather means extra checks, plenty of fresh water and making sure every animal has what it needs to stay hydrated.

Judging by the queue at the trough, business is booming!
