Farming of native and heritage breed meat in North Yorkshire is important for preserving the region’s cultural heritage and supporting small-scale farmers.
The rearing of native breeds helps to maintain the genetic diversity of the livestock population and provides products with unique qualities & characteristics.
This traditional way of farming helps to preserve the local environment and contribute to the biodiversity of the region.
Additionally, farming native breeds uses sustainable methods of farming that help to reduce the environmental impact of agriculture, such as using traditional grazing patterns, and not relying on artificial inputs.

Native breed meat is known for its high quality and unique flavour.
These breeds have been selected over generations for specific characteristics such as hardiness, disease resistance, and ability to thrive in their specific environment.
As a result, the meat of native breeds tends to be fatter, resulting in more depth of flavour, and more nutritious than that of commercial breeds.
Because native breeds are raised on natural grazing, they tend to be free of artificial hormones and antibiotics, which are often used in industrial farming.
A classic British roasting joint, hand-tied from native breed beef for a deep, beefy flavour and tender bite. Ideal for a traditional Sunday roast, cooked medium-rare and carved thin for maximum juiciness.
Native breed cattle mature more slowly and develop exceptional marbling and richness that intensively farmed beef can’t match — making this a real butcher’s favourite.
