Our gorgeous lambs have officially been weaned and are doing brilliantly 🌿🐑

They’ve had the best start and are growing into lovely, strong girls. It’s always a proud moment seeing them reach this stage.

3 of these girls are now looking for new homes, so if anyone is interested or would like a bit more information, feel free to drop me a message.

Beet salad requested by American visitors to Yorkshire as a familiar dish to kick off a meal after their long journeys from London to Ripon. This is a US recipe with a British twist: sweet golden beetroot, blaze apples, toasted walnuts and mint, dressed with balsamic and topped with Lancashire crumbly cheese from Garstang.

Served alongside focaccia and a charcuterie board as a starter, followed by the main course - a local rack of lamb cutlets - then apple and cinnamon crumble.

✨🌾It was a pleasure to host Ohana families for an exclusive tour of the farm, learn a little bit about where our food comes from and to meet and greet the animals! Lots of fun had by all, especially when we got in with the piglets and gave them lots of tummy scratches!! 🐷✨

Proposed changes to Inheritance Tax will: impact unfairly on elderly farmers, stymy investment in our essential food producing businesses and could see the break up of family farms faced with unplanned tax bills.
