We source our lamb from a few different farmers throughout the year, all is top quality and reared to our very high welfare standards. Some of our special lamb is very seasonal and always sells very quickly.

Use the links to navigate to our offerings of joints, chops and steaks, other (mince etc) and offal.

 

All our prices are guide ONLY, final price dependant on delivery weight. Some items are marked as pre-order, this is because we are either out of stock, the item is made to order or we do not stock it.

 

If we don't list it it doesn't mean we can not get it! Please ask one of our team who will be able to help.

 

Nene Flock

                                                            Spring Lamb that's born and raised       

                                                    in the picturesque Nene Valley near Daventry.

The Nene Flock is a small flock of 25 Wiltshire Horn sheep, the Wiltshire Horn is a very old

native breed and up until the end of the eighteenth century was the predominant breed found on

the Wiltshire downs. The females are good milky mothers, producing vigorous lambs that finish well at

grass. Wiltshire Horns are also unique amongst UK native breeds for their ability to shed their fleece naturally,

meaning they do not require shearing. 

The lambs are born inside during March each year and are turned outside with their mothers as soon as they are old

enough,usually at a week or two weeks old. They spend their entire lives grazing on the lovely meadows surrounding

the farm being given a modest amount of concentrate feed towards the end of summer. This is done to achieve the

level of carcass finish that customer feedback has told us is optimum. Clare and Nikolai also run a pedigree Simmental

herd (Blackfriar Simmentals), a stock bull from this herd is used by George on both the pedigree and commercial

herd at Red Oak Farm. Nene lamb is available from Mellow Meats normally in October depending on the season,

we aim to offer this as either whole of half boxes butchered to the customers spec or our standard one.

This lamb is very popular so always advisable to have your name on the list to avoid disappointment.
