About Us

Our farm shop in Launceston has been established for over 100 years and we continue the great tradition of being farmer / butchers, enabling you to buy "farm direct meats" from us, a system that has been practiced in Cornwall for generations.

We supply fully traceable true cornish meats. Our beef is raised on the wonderful grasslands that surround Bodmin Moor.

Natural meat, traditionally hung on the bone, and then butchered by three cornish professionals who know the difference between naturally raised beef and modern 'organic' beef that sounds great, but often lacks taste.

We use mainly British Native Breeds, such as Red Ruby, Hereford, Galloway, South Devon, Highland and Angus, that thrive on the margins of moorland and live on a predominantly grass diet. This produces the finest beef that is probably more natural than some of the 'organic beef' currently available from larger farming enterprises, who produce 'organic' meats in response to public perceptions of natural meat, and charge higher prices as a result.

We are also the Rare Breeds Survival Trust butchers for the area, and therefore we are able to sell wonderful tasting pork and beef from many of the old breeds.
